About the piece

This grand full-length portrait by Louis-Michel van Loo captures King Louis XV of France in his coronation finery. Draped in an ermine-lined blue robe embroidered with gold fleur-de-lis, the monarch stands with regal poise among the symbols of his power, including the royal crown and scepter. Painted around 1750, the work exemplifies the opulent Rococo style and the artist's skill in rendering luxurious fabrics and textures.
