EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking engraving on laid paper, Balthasar Moncornet captures the intense gaze of Louis II de Bourbon-Condé, also known as "Le Grand Condé" or "The Great Condé." The Duke of Enghien and Prince of Condé, Louis II is depicted in full military regalia, clad in an ornate suit of armor. The image, created in the late 17th century, showcases the French nobleman's strong and regal presence. The portrait, housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of French art and royalty. Louis II de Bourbon-Condé, born in 1621, was a prominent military leader and a key figure in the French military during the Thirty Years' War. His direct and unwavering gaze, as he looks straight at the camera, exudes confidence and determination. The intricate details of the armor, from the embossed designs to the meticulously crafted helmet, add to the overall grandeur of the portrait. The contrast between the white armor and the black background highlights the intricacies of the armor and the strong, masculine figure of the Duke. The engraving, created by Balthasar Moncornet, is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the essence of a powerful and influential figure in French history. The portrait of Louis II de Bourbon-Condé is a valuable addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the rich history of France, its royalty, and its military heritage.
