EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history as King Louis XVI of France displays an act of charity during the harsh winter of 1788. The image, expertly captured by Hersent and Lefevr, showcases the compassionate side of a monarch often remembered for his tragic fate during the French Revolution.
Louis XVI, born in 1754, is depicted here with a look of empathy and generosity as he reaches out to help those in need. Despite being known for his lavish lifestyle and opulent court, this portrayal shows a different side to the king - one that highlights his humanity and concern for his people.
The setting of the winter backdrop adds to the somber atmosphere, emphasizing both the hardships faced by ordinary citizens during this time period and Louis XVI's willingness to provide assistance where he can. This historical snapshot serves as a reminder of the complexities surrounding monarchy and power dynamics in 18th century France.
Through this remarkable print from Mary Evans Picture Library, viewers are transported back in time to witness a rare glimpse into the heart of Louis XVI - a ruler whose legacy continues to be debated and analyzed centuries later.
