EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the upper part of "Print of Aegidius Le Maistre (1665)" created by renowned print makers Nicolas Pitau I and Jean Lepautre in 1665. The image features a mesmerizing depiction of Hydra, the mythical creature slain by Hercules in Greek mythology. In this artwork, Hercules is seen raising his mighty hand to strike down the fearsome beast, symbolizing his triumph over adversity. The composition also includes powerful symbols representing sovereignty and authority. Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, holds a baton signifying his reign as the ninth ruler of France. Above him stands Saint Justice surrounded by putti, embodying divine justice and righteousness. Adorned with a laurel wreath on her helmet, she holds a sword representing strength and an olive branch symbolizing peace. The shield held by Hercules bears witness to his heroic act of slaying Hydra while paying homage to Aegidius Le Maistre's legacy captured in this remarkable print from 1665. Quint Lox masterfully captures every intricate detail in this photograph that brings history alive
