EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "View of the Fontaine de l'Obélisque in the garden of Versailles, 1700-1799," is an anonymous work attributed to Jacques Rigaud. The image transports us back to the 18th century and the opulent Palace of Versailles, specifically to the stunning Obelisk Fountain. The Obelisk, a gift from the Pope to King Louis XV, known as "Louis the Beloved," is depicted in all its grandeur, surrounded by ornate gardens and adorned with intricate ornaments. The scene is further brought to life with the inclusion of several figures, including a regal king and his court, as well as playful dogs frolicking in the grass. The etching showcases the harmonious blend of nature and artifice, as the lush greenery contrasts with the geometric patterns and ornate structures. This illustration offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of France during the eighteenth century, providing a window into the lives of the French monarchy and their esteemed guests. The intricate details and beautiful colors make this a must-see for any art lover or history buff, transporting us to a time of elegance and refinement.
