He studied other great painter's works and in 1717 he had a great success in painting enamel paintings and miniatures, but later went on to greater task. In 1723 he began to paint large portraits of royal courts  Related Paintings of MEYTENS, Martin van :. | Portrait of Maria Theresia of Austria | Emperor Francis I sg | Empress Maria Theresa ga | Queen Maria Theresia sg | The Imperial Family of Austria |
