EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette as they stand at the entry of the Tapis Vert in the Gardens of Versailles. The year is 1775, and this exquisite colour engraving by Robert, Hubert beautifully portrays the French monarchs in all their splendor. Louis XVI, known for his reserved nature and dedication to his country, stands tall with an air of authority. His elegant attire reflects his status as king, while his composed expression hints at a sense of responsibility weighing on his shoulders. Beside him stands Marie-Antoinette, renowned for her beauty and fashion-forward style. With her graceful posture and radiant smile, she exudes charm and sophistication. Her lavish gown showcases intricate details that epitomize the opulence associated with royalty. The Tapis Vert serves as a majestic backdrop to this enchanting scene. Lush greenery surrounds them as they enter this grand avenue lined with trees—a symbol of power and prestige. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from centuries past, we are transported back to a time when France was ruled by these iconic figures. Their presence evokes both admiration for their position in society and curiosity about their personal lives within the walls of Versailles. This detailed engraving allows us to appreciate not only their physical appearance but also offers a glimpse into their world—a world filled with political intrigue, societal expectations, love affairs, and ultimately tragedy.
