EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of Louis XVI, the King of France from 1754 to 1793. Painted in 1786 by Antoine Francois Callet, this masterpiece emanates elegance and regality. The painting measures approximately 0.915 x 0.730 meters and is housed in the Musee Carnavalet in Paris. Louis XVI's likeness is captured with meticulous attention to detail, highlighting his refined features and dignified expression. His powdered wig adds an air of sophistication, while his royal attire exudes power and authority. The artist skillfully portrays the king's charismatic presence through subtle brushstrokes that bring life to the canvas. The composition also includes a medal adorning Louis XVI's chest, symbolizing his position as monarch of France during the turbulent times of the late 18th century. This portrait serves as a testament to both the artistic talent of Callet and the historical significance of Louis XVI's reign.
