Original Description
Nicolas de Largillière's Portrait d'Auguste-Robert de Pomereu, Président au Grand Conseil, Conseiller d'Etat (c. 1710) is a masterful example of French Baroque portraiture, radiating grandeur and aristocratic poise. The painting captures Pomereu in sumptuous judicial robes, his dignified posture and confident gaze embodying the authority of a high-ranking official in Louis XIV's administration. Largillière's luminous brushwork and rich palette—warm reds, creamy whites, and subtle gold accents—create a sense of opulence, while the soft, atmospheric background lends depth and gravitas. As a leading portraitist of the ancien régime, Largillière bridged the ornate Baroque and the lighter Rococo styles, making this work significant for its technical brilliance and as a historical document of France’s judicial elite. The painting’s meticulous detail and psychological insight place it among the finest 18th-century state portraits, reflecting both the sitter’s status and the artist’s virtuosity.
For displaying this masterpiece, consider a formal setting that echoes its regal elegance. A classic wood-paneled study or a high-ceilinged office with neoclassical moldings would provide an ideal backdrop, allowing the portrait’s rich reds and golds to harmonize with dark mahogany furniture or gilded frames. Hang it as a focal point above a mantel or behind a desk, ensuring ample lighting (soft, directional spots) to enhance its textures. Pair it with smaller Baroque or Rococo artworks in coordinating tones—such as still lifes or landscapes—to create a cohesive aesthetic. At approximately 140 x 110 cm (typical for Largillière’s half-length portraits), the work commands attention without overwhelming a room, making it suited for spaces where refinement and historical gravitas are desired. Avoid overly modern décor; instead, lean into traditional luxe touches like velvet drapes or ornate mirrors to complete the ambiance.
