"Doop van Filips van Frankrijk, hertog van Orléans" (Baptism of Philip of France, Duke of Orléans) is a black and white lithograph created by Carel Christiaan Antony Last in 1818-1876. The artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, depicts the baptism of a young boy, likely Philip, by a religious figure in an ornate setting. The scene features a large group of spectators, including a distinguished couple seated to the right, hinting at the event's importance. The detailed rendering of the figures and their attire captures the grandeur of the occasion, offering a glimpse into the ritualistic practices of the time. The artwork, a testament to Last's artistry, provides historical insight into the life of a French royal family member.
