EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Louis XIV centre table, crafted in 1685 by the renowned artist Boulle. The table is a true masterpiece, combining various materials such as ormolu, ebony, blue-stained horn, brass, pewter, tortoiseshell, and boulle & wood marquetry. Its intricate design reflects the opulence and grandeur of the Baroque era. The black table stands out with its ornate detailing and elaborate inlay work. Every inch of its surface is adorned with gilt accents and decorative elements that catch the eye. The gold embellishments add a touch of luxury to this already magnificent piece. Louis XIV himself would have been proud to own such an extraordinary creation. Known as the Sun King or Louis the Great, he reigned over France from 1638 to 1715 as part of the House of Bourbons dynasty. This table perfectly embodies his love for lavish decoration and his desire to display his power through art. Captivatingly beautiful yet functional at its core, this Louis XIV centre table represents a time when furniture was not just utilitarian but also served as a symbol of status and wealth. It is truly a remarkable testament to craftsmanship and artistic vision that has stood the test of time. This print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail up close while capturing the essence of an era defined by elegance and extravagance.
