In a post made below on Louis XIII, I’ve been fortunate enough to have been helped by LL who pointed me towards another stunning portrait done by Louis XIII.
It is of Charles comte des Cars and was painted in 1615 ~ the year Louis turned 14 and married Anne of Austria.
My thanks to both LL and Didier Rykner at L’Art Tribune who have shown me a side of Louis XIII that I had not truly appreciated before.

That was me commenting, Jackie! I didn’t have a WordPress account then. Delighted to see this sketch, and thank you (sooooo belatedly) for the credit! 🙂
