"Louis the Beloved: A Timeless Monarch in French History" In the captivating study for a vignette in Jean Francois Marmontels' "Contes Moraux" from 1765, we catch a glimpse of Louis XV, known as Louis the Beloved. Dressed in opulent costumes reminiscent of his era, captured by Adolphe Monticelli in 1880, he exudes regal grace and charm. The model for a statue of Louis XV by Jean-Baptiste Lemoyne the Younger showcases his majestic presence. Clad in gilt-bordered armor and adorned with a blue cloak embellished with gold fleur-de-lys, he personifies grandeur and nobility. Pierre Francois Basan's creation aptly titled "Louis le Bien Aime" pays homage to this beloved king. His portrait by Benoit-Louis Prevost depicts him during his reign in 1765, radiating wisdom and authority. Ascending to the French throne at just five years old, Louis XV ruled until his passing at sixty-four years old. Known for his enduring legacy as King Louis XV of France, he left an indelible mark on history. Michel Aubert's engraving immortalizes him as an iconic figure. A young King Louis XV is portrayed through an etching by Jean Denis Nargeot from Hyacinthe Rigaud's painting. This depiction captures both innocence and potential greatness that would define his reign. As monarch of the House of Bourbon from 1715 to 1774, Maurice Quentin de La Tour's Rococo portrait beautifully encapsulates Louis XV's essence - refined yet approachable; powerful yet benevolent. Lastly, Madame La Comtesse du Barry stands alongside him – a testament to their intertwined destinies during the mid to late 18th century. Created by artist Louis Marin Bonnet, her presence signifies not only love but also political influence.
