EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the reparation made to Louis XIV, also known as the Sun King or Louis the Great. The image showcases Francesco Maria Lercari Imperiale, Doge de Genes, presenting his homage to the king in the Galerie des Glaces of Chateau de Versailles on May 15,1685. The grandeur and opulence of this occasion are beautifully depicted through chromotypography in "Le Roy Soleil" by Gustave Toutwelve. Maurice Leloir's exquisite illustration brings this historical scene to life with intricate details and vibrant colors. Louis XIV was one of France's most influential monarchs, ruling from 1638 to 1715. His reign symbolized power and splendor, earning him the title of the Sun King due to his association with Apollo, the sun god. This iconic nickname perfectly encapsulates his dominance over France during its golden age. The Galerie des Glaces (Hall of Mirrors) at Chateau de Versailles serves as a fitting backdrop for this significant event. Its magnificent mirrors and lavish decorations reflect not only Louis XIV's wealth but also his desire for absolute control over his court. This print is part of a private collection that preserves these historical moments for future generations to admire. It offers us a glimpse into an era where royalty reigned supreme and artistry flourished under their patronage.
