EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print depicts the Carriage of Louis XIV, also known as the Grand State Carriage, which was used for official state occasions during the reign of King Louis XIV of France (1638-1715) and his queen, Marie-Thérèse of Austria (1638-1683). The carriage, which dates back to 1667, is a magnificent example of the opulence and grandeur of the French monarchy during this period. The image shows the carriage being drawn by a team of magnificent white horses, their manes and tails flowing in the wind. The carriage itself is adorned with intricate gold and silver decorations, as well as red velvet upholstery and crystal chandeliers. The royal crest of France is prominently displayed on the front, while the sides are adorned with elaborate carvings and sculptures. Marie-Thérèse, who was the daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III, is depicted sitting regally in the carriage next to her husband. She is dressed in the finest clothing of the time, with a long, flowing gown and a lace veil covering her hair. Louis XIV, who is not visible in the print, would have been seated facing his wife, with a canopy above them to protect them from the elements. The Carriage of Louis XIV was used for important state occasions, such as coronations, royal processions, and receptions for foreign dignitaries. It was also used for the transportation of the royal family during their travels throughout France. The carriage was a symbol of the power and wealth of the French monarchy, and its intricate design and luxurious materials reflected the opulence and grandeur of the court of Louis XIV. This print provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of the French monarchy during the reign of Louis XIV and Marie-Thérèse. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of France, and a testament to the enduring allure of the past.
