EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas painting depicts a significant moment in French history during the regency of King Louis XV. The scene represents the Session of September 16, 1715, where Prince Philippe d'Orléans was elected as the President of the Regency Council. At the time, young Louis XV was just a child, and his mother, Marie Adelaide of Savoy, served as regent. The painting, an anonymous work circa 1720, captures the grandeur and formality of the royal court. The room is adorned with rich colors and intricate details, reflecting the opulence of the Versailles Palace. The council members, dressed in their finest attire, sit attentively around a long table, their expressions serious and focused. At the head of the table, Prince Philippe d'Orléans, dressed in the robes of the presidency, presides over the meeting with a confident and authoritative demeanor. The young Louis XV, dressed in a red robe and white petticoat, sits to the side, observing the proceedings. His mother, Marie Adelaide, stands behind him, her hand resting gently on his shoulder, offering her support and guidance. The painting is a testament to the power dynamics at play during the regency, with the elder statesman taking charge while the young king learns the ways of governance. This painting is a valuable historical artifact, now housed in the Historical Museum of Versailles. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing insights into the political climate of the time and the role of the regency council in shaping the future of France.
