EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases a fashionably dressed knight from the reign of Louis XIV, the Sun King of France. The image, part of The Book of Historical Costumes, offers a glimpse into the extravagant clothing and style prevalent in 18th-century French society. The knight's attire exudes elegance and opulence, reflecting the aristocratic nobility associated with the House of Bourbon. His meticulously tailored garments highlight his status as an esteemed member of society. A magnificent hat adorns his head, adding a touch of grandeur to his ensemble. The artist behind this remarkable illustration is H[ippolyte Louis] Pauquet, whose attention to detail brings this historical figure to life. Through his work, we are transported back in time to witness the sartorial splendor that defined Louis XIV's era. This print not only serves as an exquisite piece of art but also provides valuable insights into French culture and history during this period. It reminds us of the influence and power held by members of the aristocracy at that time. As we admire this Fashionably Dressed Knight print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we can appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and its significance in preserving our understanding of past societies and their intricate fashions.
