EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Antoine Trouvain, we are transported back to the opulent world of 17th-century France. The image depicts a leisurely scene in the Troisieme chambre des appartements du roi at Versailles, where Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, engages in a game of billiards with his brother Monsieur and other esteemed members of his court. Surrounded by family and friends, Louis XIV exudes an air of regal elegance as he skillfully maneuvers his cue on the billiard table. His nephew, the duc de Chartres (later Regent), stands beside him, eagerly observing each move. The Comte de Toulouse, Louis XIV's son and heir apparent to the French throne, also participates in this intimate gathering. The room is filled with aristocracy and nobility; among them are notable figures such as the duc de Vendome, Monsieur d'Armagnac, and Monsieur de Chamillart. Their presence adds an air of camaraderie to this momentous occasion. This enchanting print not only captures a rare glimpse into Louis XIV's personal life but also showcases his love for recreation amidst his royal duties. It serves as a testament to both his power and ability to foster strong familial bonds within the French monarchy. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from our private collection today, it reminds us of an era when artistry flourished alongside political intrigue – forever immortalizing one of history's most iconic
