EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases the iconic image of King Louis XIV of France, accompanied by his famous declaration, "L'etat, c'est moi" which translates to "I am the state". The artwork is a testament to the power and authority that Louis XIV held as an absolute monarch during the 17th century. The composition beautifully captures the regal presence of Louis XIV, known as the Sun King due to his association with Apollo, the Greek god of sun. Dressed in opulent royal attire adorned with intricate details and jewels, he exudes an aura of grandeur and dominance. Louis XIV's reign was marked by his firm belief in absolutism - a system where all power resided solely in him. This concept is symbolized by his proclamation engraved on this educational card from late 19th or early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of his unwavering control over every aspect of French society. As one gazes at this remarkable piece, they are transported back to a time when monarchy reigned supreme and kings were regarded as divine rulers. The print not only pays homage to Louis XIV but also offers insight into European history during this period. With its rich historical context and artistic brilliance, this chromolitho print stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of King Louis XIV and his significant impact on French politics and culture.
