EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a tender moment in the early life of one of history's most influential figures, Louis XIV. Painted by the talented artist Henri Beaubrun, it depicts the young king-to-be cradled in the arms of his devoted nurse, Longuet de La Giraudiere. The image is housed within the esteemed collection of Musee de l'Histoire de France at Chateau de Versailles. In this portrait, we witness a glimpse into the privileged world of French nobility and aristocracy during the modern age. As an infant, Louis XIV was already destined for greatness as he would later become known as "Louis le Grand" or "The Sun King". This iconic figure shaped world history through his reign as King of France and Navarre. The presence of his wet nurse and nanny adds a touch of humanity to this regal scene. It reminds us that even kings start their journey from humble beginnings. The baroque style painting showcases fine art at its best with exquisite details captured on canvas using oil paints. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece, let yourself be transported back in time to an era defined by absolutism and grandeur. Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of French history and marvel at how one child could grow up to shape an entire nation.
