The Marquis of Caracena and his Cortège
Oil on canvas. 1664
Meulen, Adan Frans Van Der

Traditionally thought to depict Louis XIV departing on a military campaign, this canvas in fact represents the cortège of a Spanish governor in Flanders. The principal figure in the carriage is probably Luis de Benavides y Carrillo, Marquis of Caracena (1608-1668). In other versions of his composition Van der Meulen made Louis XIV the protagonist.
