EDITORS COMMENTS
Le marquis de Sourches et sa famille by Drouais captures the essence of aristocratic life in 18th century France. In this exquisite mezzotint print, Francois-Hubert Drouais masterfully portrays Louis II du Bouchet de Sourches, the 3rd Marquis de Sourches, alongside his wife Charlotte Antoinette de Gontaut-Biron and their children. The composition exudes elegance and refinement as the family poses with poise and grace. The Marquis himself holds a flute, showcasing his musical talent and love for the arts. The presence of stringed instruments further emphasizes their appreciation for music within their opulent surroundings. Surrounded by lush scenery, including several animals that add a touch of whimsy to the scene, this image speaks to both leisure and entertainment enjoyed by the aristocracy during this classical period. It offers us a glimpse into an era when books were treasured possessions symbolizing knowledge and sophistication. Drouais' attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, capturing not only the physical likeness but also conveying the familial bond shared among them. This artwork serves as a testament to French society's fascination with portraiture during this time. Through Derek Bayes' expert photography skills, we are able to appreciate every nuance of Drouais' original masterpiece. This print transports us back in time, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the world of French aristocracy while marveling at its artistic beauty.
