Bourbon Descendants Grandson Monarch Monarchy Reverence
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print depicts a tender moment between Louis XIV, the Sun King of France (1638-1715), and his grandson, the future Louis XV (1682-1743). The image, captured in the 17th century during the Bourbon dynasty, showcases the deep reverence and affection shared between the monarch and his descendant. Louis XIV, renowned for his powerful and authoritative rule, is seen here in a more intimate and loving light as he holds and gazes upon his grandson. The young prince, dressed in elegant attire, looks up at his grandfather with a curious and adoring expression. The warm colors of the engraving add to the overall sense of warmth and connection between the two. The print serves as a reminder of the complexities of royalty and the deep familial bonds that existed within the European monarchy during this time. The image is a testament to the importance of family and the passage of power from one generation to the next. Louis XIV's reign marked a significant period in French and European history, with his influence extending far beyond the borders of France. His grandson, Louis XV, would eventually succeed him and continue the Bourbon lineage, further cementing the legacy of the French monarchy. This print offers a glimpse into the personal side of these historical figures and provides a fascinating insight into the lives of the European aristocracy during the 17th and 18th centuries.
