Portrait of Petrus Dupin, magistrate and consular quaestor at the age of 47, painted by De Angeli in the year 1739. The magistrate is represented on a neutral background; his bust turned slightly to the right, his face facing the viewer. His costume allows us to situate him socially, in the upper fringe of the nobility.

Under his jacket he wears a vest of ochre satin heightened by fine embroideries of silk and golden buttons, under the vest, a white silk shirt with lace cuffs, a lace tie tied under the collar. His posture and his face tell us more about his character traits, ambitious and authoritarian. He has a massive face with deep brown eyes, a massive nose, a thin mouth, a clear forehead and a rounded chin. His features are affirmed by a perfectly powdered wig as strict as severe.
