EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving transports us back to the reign of Louis XIV in 1715 France. The image showcases a majestic sedan chair, elegantly carried by horses, as it glides through the streets of Paris. This luxurious mode of transportation was reserved for the elite and symbolized power and prestige during this era. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable, capturing not only the grandeur of the sedan chair but also the exquisite fashion choices of its passengers. A woman dressed in a stunning gown sits inside, her attire reflecting the opulence and sophistication synonymous with French style at that time. The artist skillfully portrays every aspect of this historical scene - from the intricate curtains adorning the chair's windows to the meticulously designed garments worn by both riders and attendants. It is evident that no expense was spared when it came to creating an aura of splendor around this mode of travel. This enchanting print serves as a window into a bygone era, offering us a glimpse into both transportation methods and fashion trends prevalent during Louis XIV's reign. It reminds us how art can capture moments in history so vividly that we are transported back in time ourselves.
