Taken during the Grand Carousel presented by Louis XIV in front of the majestic Tuileries in Paris on June 5th, 1662, this image commemorates the joyous occasion of the birth of the Dauphin. The striking illustration captures Henry II de Lorraine mounted on a magnificent horseback, exuding regal elegance and power.
