EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the regal presence of Louis XIV, the King of France, also known as Louis XIV or Louis the Great (1638-1715). Born in St. Germain-en-Laye on September 5, 1638, he ascended to the throne in 1643 following the death of his father, King Louis XIII. This image, taken from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases the monarch in the prime of his life, with his distinctive curly wig and an air of authority and sophistication. Louis XIV is best known for his long reign, which lasted from 1643 to 1715, making him the longest reigning monarch in the history of France. During his rule, he transformed France into a centralized, absolute monarchy, with himself as the undisputed ruler. His court at Versailles became the epitome of luxury and extravagance, attracting nobles and artists from all corners of Europe. The portrait also bears the signature of the renowned painter, Georges de La Tour, or Geuslin, as he was known in France. Born in Lorraine, Geuslin was a master of chiaroscuro, the technique of using strong contrasts between light and dark to create depth and drama. This portrait of Louis XIV is a prime example of his skill, with the king's face illuminated by the light and the background shrouded in darkness, drawing all attention to the monarch. This portrait is not only a testament to the power and majesty of Louis XIV, but also to the artistic prowess of Geuslin. It offers a glimpse into the rich history of France and the fascinating reign of one of its most iconic monarchs.
