Portrait of the Comte d'Angiviller

Portrait of the Comte d'Angiviller is a 1779 portrait painting by the French artist Joseph Duplessis. It depicts the public official and aristocrat Charles Claude Flahaut, Count of Angiviller who as director of the Bâtiments du Roi during the reign of Louis XVI wielded great influence over the art world. He is shown holding the plans for Grande Galerie of the Louvre in Paris which he advocated turning into an museum.
The painting was commissioned by the king for 2,000 livres and was exhibited at the Salon of 1779 at the Louvre. The original is now in the Musée Condé in Chantilly, while a second version is in the Museum of French History at the Palace of Versailles.
