EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite antique print showcases a close-up view of a decorative box from the 18th century, estimated to be between 1720 and 1740. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, but it is believed to originate from France, possibly from the Paris region. The box, made of copper with intricate gold and enamel decorations, is a stunning example of the ornate and intricate design popular during the eighteenth century. The lid of the box is adorned with a portrait of King William III of England, also known as William III of Orange or William II of Scotland, who ruled as King of England, Ireland, and Scotland from 1689 until his death in 1702. The box's surface is covered in intricate gold tablets, with intricate designs and inscriptions, and the corners are decorated with the emblem of the Prince of Orange. The box's surface has a scabbed appearance, which is likely due to the natural aging process of the copper and the enamel. This box is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the time, and can be found in the collections of the Musée Cognacq-Jay in Paris, one of the city's most esteemed museums. The box's intricacy and beauty make it a captivating object of interest for modern viewers, offering a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the past.
