This engraving takes us back in time to the era of Louis XIV, also known as the Sun King. The image showcases a bustling French playing card factory, offering a glimpse into the intricate process of manufacturing these popular cards during that period. The scene is set along the picturesque banks of the Seine River, where workers can be seen diligently engaged in various tasks. From printing and sorting to packing and packaging, every step of card production is meticulously carried out within this vibrant factory. The grandeur and opulence associated with Louis XIV's reign are evident in this artwork. The majestic presence of the king himself adds an air of authority and importance to the setting. As one gazes at this print, it becomes apparent that even mundane activities like card manufacturing were conducted under royal supervision. The House of Bourbon dynasty, led by Louis XIV, played a significant role in shaping French culture and history. This engraving serves as a testament to their influence on industries such as playing card manufacture.
