Which artist was the court painter to Louis XIV?

I knew this. The French Royalty were so imperious at the time, there is no way they would have employed an Italian, Le Brun (Brown) is a common French name, so it was a dead giveaway for that reason. Thankfully most Royalty have been deposed or executed, as they are parasites on the rest of society, of course there is still a constitutional disempowered monarchy in the UK that still gets mobs of money from the British Taxpayer, to boost tourism mainly. However, their use by date has arrived. The sooner Royalty and Politicians are paid at the same rate as the rest of the population with EXACTLY the same pension scheme, the better. Along with Royalty, Polticians are a blight on society, their favourite occupations being Corruption, theft, kleptocracy and killing people, mainly through causing wars or going into wars and using the general populace for Cannon Fodder. They are the most immoral humans on the planet. Also the worst terrorists.

My instincts were Raphael (not knowing his era). Majority said de Vinci. We were both wrong.
