EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a scene from the Royal Progress of King Louis XIV, the Sun King, during the early 18th century. Circa 1700, Louis XIV embarked on a grand tour of his kingdom, traveling from Versailles to various provinces to assert his authority and connect with his subjects. In this image, the monarch is shown in the open air, seated in a magnificent state coach, adorned with gold and precious stones. Drawn by a team of powerful horses, the coach transports the king through the picturesque rural landscape, with the sun casting a warm glow over the scene. The king's entourage follows behind him, including nobles on horseback and elegant carriages. The serene atmosphere of the progress is a stark contrast to the political and military tensions that were brewing in Europe at the time. This print offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the French monarchy during the reign of Louis XIV, a period of cultural and artistic flourishing that would leave an indelible mark on European history.
