About the piece
Painted in 1796 by Henri-Pierre Danloux, this oil on panel portrait depicts Louis-Antoine d’Artois, Duc d’Angoulême. The work captures the young duke in a dark military uniform with silver epaulettes and the distinctive blue sash of the Order of the Holy Spirit, demonstrating the refined painterly technique of the late 18th-century French school.
