A Legacy of Royal Portraits: The Life and Art of Louis-Michel van Loo Born in Toulon, France, on March 2nd, 1707, Louis-Michel van Loo emerged from a distinguished lineage of artists. His father, Jean-Baptiste van Loo, served as his initial mentor, laying the foundation for a career that would see him become one of the most sought-after portraitists of the 18th century. This early training was supplemented by studies in Turin and Rome…
Scroll through Louis Michel van Loo's working life — artwork by artwork, chapter by chapter — from the earliest dated work to the last. Each thumbnail is pinned at its exact year on the gold axis.
The ribbon is divided into shaded bands, one per career chapter. Each chapter groups Louis Michel van Loo's works by their historical period — early training, mature practice, final years.
Every thumbnail is pinned at its precise creation year. A thin gold thread drops from the image to its exact point on the axis. Larger frames mark the artist's masterpieces by rank.
The gradient bar beneath the axis shifts colour as the dominant art movement changes over time — from the warm golds of the early period through the deeper tones of maturity. It fills progressively as you scroll.
