Double Portrait of Pierre and Jacques Dupuy 1643 - 1654

"Double Portrait of Pierre and Jacques Dupuy" is an etching by renowned French artist Robert Nanteuil, created between 1643 and 1654. The work features two men, Pierre and Jacques Dupuy, depicted in oval frames. The detail and realism of their features, along with their refined clothing, are characteristic of Nanteuil's mastery in portraiture. This print was produced as part of a series of engravings commissioned by the Dupuy family, demonstrating the artist's popularity among the French elite. Now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the etching stands as a testament to Nanteuil's skill in capturing individual likeness and conveying social status through visual representation.
