  However, Rigaud intended to glorify the monarchy. Rigaud's original, now housed in the Louvre, was originally meant as a gift to 
  Louis's grandson, Philip V of Spain. However, Louis was so pleased with the work that he kept the original and commissioned a 
  copy to be sent to his grandson. That became the first of many copies, both in full and half-length formats, to be made by Rigaud, 
  often with the help of his assistants. The portrait also became a model for French royal and imperial portraiture down to the time 
  of Charles X over a century later. In his work, Rigaud proclaims Louis's exalted royal status through his elegant stance and 
  haughty expression, the royal regalia and throne, rich ceremonial fleur-de-lys robes, as well as the upright column in the 
  background, which, together with the draperies, serves to frame this image of majesty.
