EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a pivotal moment in French history as Marquis de Seignelay, Jean-Baptiste Colbert (1619-1683), engages in a deep discussion with King Louis XIV at the Palace of Versailles in 1683. Colbert, a renowned French statesman and financial genius, served as the Secretary of State for the Navy and later became the Controller-General of Finances under the reign of Louis XIV. The photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to an era of opulence and grandeur. The King, dressed in his regal attire, sits confidently on his throne, while Colbert, with his fur-trimmed robe and white wig, leans in intently, listening attentively to the monarch. The intricately decorated walls of the room, adorned with gold and precious stones, reflect the wealth and power of the French monarchy during this period. The year was 1683, and the two men were discussing the pressing matters of the realm. Colbert, known for his exceptional administrative skills, was instrumental in implementing various economic and financial reforms that strengthened the French economy and solidified the power of the monarchy. His influence extended beyond finance, as he also played a significant role in the expansion of the French colonial empire. The relationship between Colbert and Louis XIV was a symbiotic one. The King recognized Colbert's talents and relied on him to help maintain his power and prestige, while Colbert, in turn, used the King's support to implement his vision for a stronger and more prosperous France. This photograph offers a glimpse into the complex dynamics of power and governance during the reign of Louis XIV, a time when France was at the height of its influence and grandeur.
