EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment of leisure and camaraderie within the opulent walls of Versailles. In this enchanting scene, we witness the Sun King himself, Louis XIV, engaged in a friendly game of billiards with his esteemed brother Philippe Duc d Orleans, known as Monsieur. Surrounded by an illustrious gathering of relatives and influential figures such as the Count of Toulouse, the Duke of Vendome, Monsieur d Armagnac, and Monsieur de Chamillart, this image offers a rare glimpse into the inner circle that orbited around Louis XIV's court. The engraving by Antoine Trouvain beautifully depicts their animated interaction amidst an exquisitely adorned room. The ornate tapestries hanging on the walls bear witness to the grandeur that defined life at Versailles during this era. As we delve deeper into history through this photograph from a private collection, it becomes evident that beyond his role as monarch and ruler over France for over seven decades, Louis XIV cherished moments like these – where he could unwind with loved ones while indulging in games and laughter. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to 1694 when camaraderie reigned supreme amongst royalty. It serves as a reminder that even kings sought solace in simple pleasures amidst their regal duties.
