EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases Louis XIV of France and the French army crossing the mighty Rhine River in 1672. The image, created by a French School artist in the 19th century, depicts a pivotal moment in history during the Franco-Dutch War. In this educational card from the late 19th or early 20th century, we witness the grandeur and power of Louis XIV as he leads his troops on horseback across the river into enemy territory. The scene is filled with an air of determination and confidence, reflecting both the military might of France and Louis XIV's own monarchical authority. The composition beautifully captures not only the regal portrait of Louis XIV but also highlights the strength and elegance of his horses. As "the Sun King". Louis XIV symbolizes absolute monarchy and embodies French royalty at its zenith. This historical event marked an invasion into Germany by France, showcasing their dominance over Europe during that period. It serves as a reminder of both political ambition and military prowess. Through this remarkable print, we are transported back to a time when kingdoms clashed for supremacy, reminding us of how history shapes our present-day world.
