The Duke is shown in full regalia, wearing an ornate armored suit adorned with intricate designs and embellishments. His stern expression and piercing gaze convey a sense of authority and determination. The etching, which is part of a larger collection housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of France during the eighteenth century. The black and white medium adds a timeless quality to the depiction, making it an essential addition to any art or history collection. The etching's intricate details and masterful execution make it a must-see for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Antoine de Marcenay Ghuy's work is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Baroque era and the importance of preserving historical figures and their stories for future generations.
