專家說明

This portrait is one of three autograph versions of this composition. Jeffares (op. cit., p. 288) lists the other two versions in the Musée Antoine Lécuyer in Saint-Quentin and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. A version was first exhibited at the Salon of 1739. Another version at times considered autograph, but now considered a copy, was formerly in the collection of Georges Dormeuil (Sotheby's, London, 9 July 2014, lot 1010, unsold).

Claude Dupouch (circa 1686-1747) was painter and professor at l'Académie de Saint Luc and is believed to have been La Tour's teacher. He was also painter to the King of Poland. La Tour's portrait is one of his most celebrated works.
