EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as Louis XV, the King of France from 1710 to 1774, visits the Ecole Militaire in Paris on the 12th of August, 1760. Engraved by Antoine Duclos, this artwork beautifully depicts the royal visit with intricate detail. The Ecole Militaire was a prestigious military academy founded by Louis XV himself in 1751. Its purpose was to transform young men without means into skilled military officers. This image showcases the king's commitment to his vision as he inspects and reviews the soldiers at this renowned institution. Gabriel de Saint-Aubin skillfully captured this historic event through his artistic interpretation. The engraving portrays soldiers standing tall and proud while a tambour plays in their midst, adding an air of grandeur to the scene. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, we are transported back to a time when kings took great interest in shaping their armies and ensuring they were well-trained for battle. It serves as a reminder of Louis XV's dedication to strengthening his nation's military might. This photograph is not just an exquisite work of art; it also represents an important chapter in French history. Let us appreciate its beauty and reflect on how past leaders have shaped our world today.
