EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print captures the youthful beauty and grandeur of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette on the occasion of their wedding in 1770. At the tender ages of 15 and 14 respectively, the young dauphin and dauphine of France were united in marriage, marking the beginning of Louis' reign as King of France. The image showcases the opulence and elegance of the French Court during the 1770s, with Marie Antoinette's voluminous crinoline dress and Louis' ornate military uniform. The intricate details of their wedding costumes are a testament to the wealth and power of the French monarchy at the time. The delicate lace, intricate embroidery, and rich fabrics used in their attire reflect the extravagance and grandeur of the Ancien Régime. Despite the tragic end to their reign and the downfall of the monarchy during the French Revolution, this image serves as a reminder of the beauty and splendor of the French Court during the late 18th century.
