EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Abel Francois Poisson, Marquis de Marigny, a prominent figure of the French aristocracy during the 18th century. Born in 1727, Marigny rose to prominence under the patronage of King Louis XV and later served as the Master of the Hunt and the Minister of Marine under King Louis XVI. The portrait, created by the skilled German engraver Johann Georg Wille in 1761, showcases Marigny's regal bearing and impeccable fashion. He is depicted wearing an ornate coat adorned with a grand heraldic design, reflecting his noble lineage. The Marquis de Marigny's coat of arms, featuring three fleurs-de-lis and a cross, is prominently displayed on his chest. Marigny's stern gaze and strong posture exude confidence and authority, further emphasizing his status as a powerful and influential figure in French society. The intricately detailed engraving, with its delicate shading and precise lines, captures the essence of the aristocratic portrait genre popular during the 18th century. This print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the time, offering a glimpse into the world of the French aristocracy and the grandeur of the Old Regime. It is a valuable addition to any art collection, particularly for those with an interest in European history, aristocratic portraiture, or heraldry.
