EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Pierre Seguier, Chancellor of France during the 17th century. Painted by Henri Testelin in approximately 1668, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 158x129 cm and is housed at the magnificent Château de Versailles in France. The portrait captures Seguier's commanding presence as he stands proudly, donning his formal robes adorned with fleur-de-lys motifs. The three-quarter length composition allows us to appreciate his aristocratic stature and dignified countenance. With a letter and document in hand, symbols of his administrative power, it becomes evident why he held such a prominent position within French society. Notably, this painting is based on an original work by Charles Le Brun, adding another layer of artistic significance to its historical value. Le Brun was renowned for his ability to capture both physical likeness and inner character through portraiture. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to witness the elegance and grandeur of French aristocracy during the reign of Louis XIV. This photograph print serves as a testament to Seguier's influential role as Chancellor while also celebrating the skillful artistry of Testelin and Le Brun.
