EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as it depicts a study session being conducted for the young Louis XV, who would later become the King of France and Navarre. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 18th century, this pen and ink drawing showcases the importance of education and schooling for monarchs. The scene takes place in an elegant interior setting, where a teacher is seen imparting knowledge to the young king. The teacher uses maps to teach geography while surrounded by various symbols of learning such as books and globes. The presence of putti or cherubic figures adds a touch of whimsy to this educational tableau. Through this artwork, we gain insight into the meticulous efforts taken to educate future rulers during that era. It highlights both the responsibilities placed upon young royals and their eagerness to learn. Preserved at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this study serves as an invaluable historical document that sheds light on not only Louis XV's early education but also on teaching practices prevalent during his time. As we admire this remarkable piece from www. bridgemanimages. com, let us appreciate its artistic beauty while recognizing its significance in portraying how education shapes even those destined for greatness.
