EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating portrait print of Abel Francois Poisson, Marquis de Marigny, takes us back to the elegance and opulence of 18th-century France. Painted in 1755 by renowned artist Louis M. Tocque, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures the essence of a man who held significant positions within the royal court. Abel Francois Poisson was not only known for his aristocratic lineage but also for his influential roles as Directeur General des Batiments du Roi (Director General of the King's buildings) and brother to Madame de Pompadour. This three-quarter length portrait showcases him wearing a fur-trimmed coat adorned with a sash and medal, symbolizing his prestigious status. Intriguingly, Poisson is depicted holding plans in his hand, alluding to his architectural prowess. As an accomplished architect himself, he played a vital role in shaping some of France's most iconic structures during that era. This remarkable print transports us to Château de Versailles in France where it resides today. With its impressive dimensions measuring 135x104 cm, it commands attention and invites viewers into the world of French aristocracy. Louis M. Tocque's skillful brushwork brings out every detail - from the intricate patterns on Poisson's attire to the subtle nuances in his expression - making this portrait an exquisite representation of both artistry and history.
