EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a Louis XIV petit armoise, dating back to the early 18th century. Created by the renowned artist André-Charles Boulle or attributed to him, this ornate cabinet is a true masterpiece of its time. Measuring at an impressive 150.5x121x48 cm, this petite armoire features a stunning combination of materials including ormolu, brass, tortoiseshell, ebony, and marquetry. The intricate inlay work and neoclassical pattern make it a striking addition to any space. The gilt accents add a touch of opulence while the elaborate design reflects the grandeur associated with Louis XIV's reign as King of France from 1638 to 1715. Known as "the Sun King". Louis XIV was celebrated for his love for art and decoration. This petit armoire not only serves as functional furniture but also doubles as an artistic statement piece. Its decorative elements and gold embellishments are testaments to the skilled craftsmanship that characterized the House of Bourbons' dynasty during this period. Now housed in a private collection, this remarkable piece has been captured beautifully in this photograph by eChristies Images. It allows us to admire every detail up close and appreciate the rich history behind such magnificent creations from centuries past.
