ICONOGRAFÍA / ICONOGRAPHY :

---------------------------
Structure:
It follows the classic model of the French Baroque and Classicist royal portrait. The young monarch is depicted within an oval or tondo framed by a molding, set upon a sumptuous limestone architectural pedestal that serves as a cartouche for the identifying inscription.

Attire and insignia:
Despite his young age, he wears rich brocaded fabrics with floral motifs (typical of the Regency court and the beginning of his effective reign). He wears the sash of the Order of the Holy Spirit (Ordre du Saint-Esprit) across his chest, and the corresponding heraldic badge is sewn onto his coat. His right hand rests firmly on the royal crown, which sits on a cushion to the left, reaffirming the legitimacy of his institutional sovereignty
