About the piece

Painted in 1728 by the court artist Martin van Meytens, this masterful full-length portrait depicts Victor Amadeus II, King of Sardinia. The monarch is presented in full majestic regalia, wearing a ceremonial wig and a heavy ermine robe over intricate blue and gold textiles. The composition is a quintessential example of Baroque power-portraiture, designed to convey authority and lineage through sophisticated painterly technique.
