This engraving, titled "The Place Royale and the Carrousel in 1612" takes us back to a momentous celebration in Paris during the 17th century. The artwork showcases a vibrant birds-eye view of the Place Royale, where an extravagant tournament is taking place.

As our eyes wander across the print, we are immersed in a scene filled with excitement and splendor. The city comes alive as crowds gather to witness this extraordinary display. Majestic horses prance elegantly while knights engage in jousting matches on their backs. The air is thick with anticipation as coaches adorned with regal decorations parade through the streets.
