EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating oil on canvas portrait of Abbe Pierre-Joseph Alary (1689-1770) by the French School in the 18th century is a remarkable piece that captures the essence of this influential figure. Alary, an academician, cleric, and man of letters, was elected as a member of the prestigious French Academy in 1723. Renowned for his intellect and erudition, he also served as a tutor to Louis XV. This painting showcases Abbe Pierre-Joseph Alary with great poise and dignity. His expression exudes wisdom and depth, reflecting his role as a respected intellectual during his time. The artist skillfully portrays him wearing a wig, which was fashionable among men at that period. Notably, Abbe Pierre-Joseph Alary founded the Entresol Club in 1724—a gathering place for intellectuals to discuss politics and economics. This exclusive salon attracted prominent figures such as Montesquieu, Mme du Deffand, and even Madame de Pompadour herself—future mistress of King Louis XV. However, due to its potential subversive nature according to King Louis XV's perception, the club was forced to close its doors in 1731. Despite this setback, Abbe Pierre-Joseph Alary's legacy lives on through this exquisite painting—an enduring testament to his contributions as both a religious figure and an influential socialite.
