EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment from history - the Grand Carousel given by Louis XIV in front of the Tuileries, Paris, France on 5th June 1662. The occasion was none other than the joyous celebration of the birth of the Dauphin, heir to the French throne. In this particular frame, we witness two talented musicians who are an integral part of this grand spectacle. On horseback, dressed in elaborate costumes that reflect their Indian heritage, these performers exude both grace and power. The Indian drummer skillfully beats his drum with precision and rhythm while seated atop his majestic steed. Beside him stands a trumpeter whose melodious notes fill the air with enchantment. The attention to detail is remarkable as every element within this illustration transports us back to seventeenth-century France. From the ornate saddles adorning their horses to their exquisite attire, it is evident that no expense was spared for this extravagant event. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the resounding music echoing through Parisian streets as riders gallop past in a magnificent cavalcade. This image serves as a testament not only to Louis XIV's opulence but also to his appreciation for diverse cultures and artistic expression. Published in L Illustration magazine in 1936, this photograph continues to captivate viewers even today with its rich historical significance and timeless beauty.
