EDITORS COMMENTS
This frontispiece copperplate engraving, created by Charles Simonneau l aine after a drawing by Charles-Antoine Coypel, is an exquisite piece of art that transports us to the 18th century. Taken from C. F. Menestriers Medailles sur les Principaux Evenements du Regne de Louis le Grand, Paris in 1702, this print showcases the remarkable talent and creativity of these renowned French artists. The focal point of the engraving is an oval portrait of King Louis XIV, painted by Rigaud and supported by charming cupids. The regal presence of the king exudes power and authority as he gazes upon us with unwavering confidence. Surrounding him are allegorical figures such as Mercury (Hermes), wearing his iconic helmet symbolizing communication and trade. The inclusion of a book and printing press signifies the importance of knowledge and intellectual progress during this era. History itself stands personified in the form of Time, reminding us that all things are fleeting but leave their mark on future generations. Coypel's mastery in capturing intricate details through his drawing is evident here; every stroke brings life to each character depicted. This allegoric illustration serves not only as a visual delight but also as a reflection on societal values and aspirations during King Louis XIV's reign. Preserved meticulously over time, this print now finds its place among other fine artworks at Bridgeman Images' collection thanks to Florilegius' copyright ownership rights for non-commercial use purposes only.
