EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic King Louis XIV in the midst of his courtiers, as depicted in Frantz Funck-Brentano's renowned book "Louis XIV". The engraving, created by Sylvain Sauvage in 1938, showcases the grandeur and opulence of the French court during the reign of this legendary monarch. King Louis XIV, also known as the Sun King or Louis the Great, ruled France from 1638 to 1715. His powerful presence is evident as he stands at the center of attention amidst a sea of admirers. Dressed in exquisite attire befitting his status, he exudes authority and charisma. The image not only portrays royalty but also offers a glimpse into 17th-century fashion. The intricate details of each individual's clothing highlight their social standing and adherence to courtly etiquette. Amongst them is a girl with an air of mystery - perhaps a courtesan who captivated both nobles and commoners alike. As part of the House of Bourbons dynasty, King Louis XIV left an indelible mark on French history through his political achievements and patronage for arts and culture. This photograph serves as a testament to his enduring legacy. Stefano Bianchetti skillfully preserves this historical moment through his private collection. With its vibrant colors and meticulous engravings, this artwork transports viewers back to an era defined by elegance and extravagance – truly capturing the essence of Louis XIV's reign.
