Original Description
The portrait Portrait of a Gentleman (Charles Le Normant du Coudray?), Seated Half-length, in a Red Coat and Gold Brocade Waistcoat by Jean-Baptiste Perronneau exudes an air of refined elegance and quiet confidence. Painted in the mid-18th century, the work showcases Perronneau's mastery of pastel, a medium he championed alongside Maurice Quentin de La Tour. The sitter, possibly Charles Le Normant du Coudray, is depicted with remarkable vitality—his red coat and gold brocade waistcoat shimmer against the muted background, while his penetrating gaze suggests intelligence and worldly sophistication. Perronneau's delicate handling of light and texture, particularly in the lace cravat and powdered wig, reflects the Rococo era's love for detail and subtlety. Though less famous than his rival La Tour, Perronneau's portraits are celebrated for their psychological depth and luminous color, marking him as a key figure in 18th-century French portraiture.
For a sophisticated interior, this painting would elevate a formal study, a classic library, or an executive office. Its rich red and gold hues pair beautifully with dark wood furnishings, velvet upholstery, or gilded accents, creating a sense of timeless luxury. Hang it at eye level in a space with warm, indirect lighting to enhance its delicate pastel tones—avoid overly bright or cold lighting, which might dull its vibrancy. A medium to large frame (the original likely measures around 24 x 20 inches) suits grander rooms, while a smaller, intimate setting could use a high-quality reproduction scaled proportionally. Balance the composition by flanking it with sconces or placing it above a console table with elegant objets d’art, ensuring the portrait remains the focal point without overwhelming the space.
