EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of leisure and camaraderie among the grandchildren of Louis XIV, the Sun King. In this 17th-century scene, we see Louis Duke of Burgundy, Philippe Duke of Anjou, and Charles Duke of Berry engaged in a game of tric trac with their father, Louis Dolphin of France. Engraved by Nicolas Bonnard, a renowned artist from Paris during that era, this artwork showcases the exquisite decorative arts prevalent at the time. The intricate details on their clothing and surroundings transport us back to an opulent period in French history. Tric trac was an ancestor to modern-day backgammon and was popular among nobility during this period. It is fascinating to witness these young princes indulging in such a sophisticated pastime while displaying their strategic skills. The image exudes elegance as it portrays not only the playful nature but also the close bond shared between father and sons. Their expressions reveal joyous moments filled with laughter and friendly competition. As we gaze upon this historical photograph print from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are reminded of the grandeur associated with French royalty. It serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and cultural heritage that continue to captivate audiences centuries later.
