EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created by Robert Nanteuil in the 1650s, depicts Pompone II de Bellièvre, a prominent figure of the Baroque era in France. Pompone II de Bellièvre was a diplomat, commissary, magistrate, and lawyer, holding significant political power during the seventeenth century. In this portrait, Pompone II de Bellièvre is shown wearing the elegant apparel of the time, which reflects his affluence and status. He is dressed in a long, flowing robe, adorned with intricate fur trim, which adds a touch of opulence to his attire. The fur trim, a symbol of wealth and power during the Baroque era, is meticulously rendered in the engraving, showcasing Nanteuil's exceptional skill as an artist. The portrait also reveals the fashion trends of the time, with Pompone II de Bellièvre wearing a high-collared shirt, a doublet, and breeches. His dress is completed with a decorative sash, adding a sense of formality to his appearance. The background of the portrait is simple, with a plain frame and a blank space, drawing all the attention to Pompone II de Bellièvre's striking features and his elaborate attire. The engraving, now held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to the rich heritage of art and fashion during the Baroque era in France. Pompone II de Bellièvre's portrait by Robert Nanteuil is a historical masterpiece, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insights into the lives of the powerful men of the seventeenth century. The intricate details of the engraving, from the fur trim to the delicate folds of Pompone II de Bellièvre's robe, make it a must-see for anyone interested in art, fashion, or history.
