EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a momentous occasion in French history - the meeting of King Louis XV and Marie Leczinska on September 4, 1725, just one day before their wedding. The image exudes elegance and regality as the couple stands together in Moret, surrounded by courtiers and attendants.
At the bottom of the print, we see another significant event - the wedding by proxy of Marie Leczinska and the Duke of Orleans in Strasbourg on August 15, 1725. This engraving for the 1726 almanac showcases two pivotal moments in the lives of these historical figures.
Louis XV, known as a patron of arts and culture during his reign from 1710 to 1774, appears dignified and composed next to his bride-to-be. Marie Leczinska, daughter of King Stanislaw I Leszczynski of Poland, radiates grace and poise as she prepares to become Queen consort of France.
This photograph is not just a visual representation but a window into a bygone era filled with grandeur and tradition. The intricate details captured in this engraving transport us back to early 18th-century France, where royal weddings were extravagant affairs steeped in ceremony and splendor.
