| Description |
Español: Retrato oficial del rey Felipe V de España (1683-1746), que fue nieto del rey Luis XIV de Francia y el primer monarca de la Casa de Borbón en España. Nació en Versalles y fue proclamado rey de España en 1700. Casó dos veces, tuvo numerosos hijos y falleció en Madrid en 1746. El Rey viste armadura, porta el bastón de mando y está acompañado por un casco de guerra situado frente a él sobre una piedra. Además de la riquísima casaca bordada y de la faja roja ciñéndole la cintura, vestiduras dignas de su condición, el Monarca luce la insignia del Toisón de Oro y la banda del Saint-Esprit, símbolos de su dominio español, como heredero de la Casa de Borgoña, y de su ascendencia francesa. Esta composición se convirtió en el modelo de retrato oficial del Rey, repitiéndose con escasas variaciones innumerables veces y por diversos artistas. Se distingue por su elegancia, refinamiento y distinción, características que conectan directamente con la pintura francesa del momento y especialmente con la producción de Hyacinthe Rigaud (1659-1743), maestro de Ranc y pintor de cámara de Luis XIV y Luis XV de Francia. Este cuadro es compañero del retrato de su esposa Isabel de Farnesio (P2330), también en las colecciones del Museo del Prado. Ambas obras se salvaron del incendio de 1734 del Alcázar de Madrid, desde donde pasaron al Palacio del Buen Retiro.
English: This is an official portrait of Felipe V (1683-1746), the first Bourbon king of Spain. The grandson of Louis XIV (1638-1715) of France, he was born in Versailles and was proclaimed King of Spain in 1700. Married two times, he had numerous children and died in Madrid in 1746. The king wears armor and carries a ruler's staff. A warrior's helmet rests on a stone in front of him. Along with the sumptuous embroidered frock coat and red girdle at his waist, which indicate his regal condition, he wears the insignia of the Golden Fleece and the sash of the Saint Esprit, symbols of his Spanish dominion as heir to the House of Burgundy, and of his French origins. This composition became the model for official portraits of the King and was repeated on innumerable occasions by various artists with scant variations. It stands out for its elegance, refinement and distinction, characteristics directly connected to French painting of that moment, especially the production of Hyacinthe Rigaud (1659-1743), who was Ranc's teacher and the chamber painter to Louis XIV and Louis XV of France. This painting is the companion to the portrait of the King's wife, Isabel de Farnesio (P2330), which is also in the Prado Museum collection. Both works were saved from the 1734 fire at Madrid's Alcázar Palace and moved to the Buen Retiro Palace.
