18th century school, follower of RIGAUD Portrait of Guillaume de Lamoignon de Malesherbes (Paris 1721-1794) Canvas 144 x 111.5 cm Formerly attributed to Martin van Meytens (Stockholm, 1695 - Vienna, 1770) The best-known portrait of Guillaume de Lamoignon is the version by Hyacinthe Rigaud, whose composition is faithfully reproduced in our painting, with modifications to the wig and certain details of clothing. In 1716, Hyacinthe Rigaud (1659-1743), the greatest official portraitist of the late reign of Louis XIV and the early Regency, painted the portrait of Guillaume II de Lamoignon, seigneur de Blancmesnil et de Malesherbes (1683-1772). This influential magistrate, then aged 33, was avocat général at the Parlement de Paris.
