EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant engraving captures the final meeting between Marie Mancini and King Louis XIV before her forced departure to Brouage, orchestrated by Cardinal Mazarin to keep her away from the King. The sorrowful expressions on their faces speak volumes about the deep bond they shared and the heart-wrenching separation that now lies ahead.
Marie Mancini, a beautiful and intelligent woman who captured the heart of the young king, finds herself torn apart from her beloved in this moment of farewell. As she prepares to embark on a journey into exile, her eyes are filled with both sadness and resignation, knowing that she must obey the will of those in power.
Louis XIV, known for his charm and charisma, appears somber and contemplative as he bids farewell to his cherished companion. The weight of responsibility as a monarch is evident in his demeanor, yet there is an undeniable sense of longing in his gaze as he watches Marie depart.
The intricate details captured in this engraving by Alexandre Dumas evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era where love was intertwined with politics and power. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made in pursuit of ambition and duty, even at the cost of personal happiness.
