French portraitist Louis Tocqué studied under painter Jean-Marc Nattier. Tocqué’s portrait of the young Duke of Orleans, Louis Philippe Joseph, is a delightful, even whimsical treatment of the Bourbon heir in the style of a conversation piece. Later he became one of the most powerful men in France and was a friend of the Revolution while working towards achieving liberty, equality, and fraternity through non-violent means during his lifetime. This pleasing Mixed-Media tableau is well suited for French Chateaus and Luxury Homes in Westover Hills, Texas.
