Charles Le Brun - The Family of Darius Before Alexander [c.1660] “Charles Le Brun (Paris, February 24, 1619 - Paris, February 22, 1690) was a French painter and art theorist. Le Brun primarily worked for King Louis XIV, for whom he executed large altarpieces and battle pieces. His most important paintings are at Versailles. Besides his gigantic labours at Versailles and the Louvre, the number of his works for religious corporations and private patrons is enormous.” (Source) -- source link
