🎨 Who was Hyacinthe Rigaud?

Born in Perpignan in 1659, Hyacinthe Rigaud is one of the greatest portrait painters in the history of French painting. Trained in Montpellier and then in Paris, he achieved immense success at the court of King Louis XIV, who entrusted him with several official commissions.
His style is recognizable by his monumental representations, his richly detailed costumes, his luxurious textures (silk, velvet, embroidery), and his ability to capture grandeur while revealing the individual.
He painted kings, queens, academicians, ministers, and prelates, leaving a major mark on European portrait art.
