EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print depicts a tender moment in the history of the French monarchy, capturing a young Louis XV (1710-1774) in the company of his regent, Philippe II, Duke of Orleans (1674-1723), during the king's minority. The image, taken from an 18th-century engraving, portrays the duke holding the young monarch on his lap as they both gaze intently at the proceedings in the Parliament. Philippe, a beloved and respected figure, assumed the role of regent following the death of Louis XV's father, King Louis XIV, in 1715. During his regency, he governed with wisdom and grace, ensuring a smooth transition of power and maintaining the stability of the Bourbon monarchy. Louis XV, who ascended to the throne at the tender age of five, was known for his long curly hair and the distinctive wigs that became a hallmark of his later reign. In this print, the duke's elegant attire and the ornate interior of the parliament building add to the sense of grandeur and importance of the scene. The image offers a rare glimpse into the infancy of Louis XV and the close relationship he shared with his regent, who played a crucial role in shaping the young monarch's character and reign. The print is a testament to the rich history and intricate workings of European royalty during the 18th century.
