EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the young Louis XV, aged 15, in all his regal splendor. Painted by Jean-Baptiste van Loo after 1725, this oil on canvas print showcases the future French king at a pivotal moment in his life. Louis XV stands confidently before us, exuding an air of authority beyond his years. Dressed in lavish royal attire, he wears a resplendent crown adorned with fleur de lys - a symbol of the French monarchy. His breastplate and sash further emphasize his position as ruler. In one hand, Louis XV holds a sword firmly yet gracefully, representing both power and chivalry. The other hand grasps a baton - an emblematic accessory denoting command and leadership. The artist skillfully captures the youthful features of Louis XV's face; there is an undeniable sense of potential and promise emanating from him. This portrait serves as a testament to the hopes placed upon this young monarch's shoulders during these formative years. Displayed at Musee des Beaux-Arts in Nancy, France, this painting offers viewers a glimpse into history - an intimate encounter with one of France's most influential rulers. As we gaze upon this masterpiece today, we are reminded of Louis XV's enduring legacy and impact on European politics during his reign.
