EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur and opulence of a masked ball held at the illustrious Palace of Versailles. The event, organized to celebrate the marriage of Louis, Dauphin of France, and Maria Theresa, Infanta of Spain in 1745, was a spectacle that epitomized the extravagant lifestyle of the Bourbon monarchy. The image transports us back to the 18th century, capturing an exquisite moment within the chateau's magnificent Grande Galerie. Charles-Nicolas Cochin skillfully depicts a scene filled with mystery and allure as guests adorned in lavish costumes mingle beneath ornate chandeliers. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from intricate masks to sumptuous fabrics draped over elegantly dressed figures. Notably, Cochin incorporates elements of Orientalism into his composition by including a Turkish character amidst European nobility. This nod to exoticism adds an intriguing layer to an already enchanting tableau. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our vantage point in the 19th century, it serves as a testament not only to Cochin's artistic prowess but also as a reminder of France's rich cultural heritage. Preserved for generations at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this reprint allows us access into one unforgettable night at Versailles - where romance intertwined with regality under shimmering candlelight.
