EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the future King Charles X of France, also known as the Comte d Artois, alongside his sister Marie Clothilde. Painted by Francois Hubert Drouais in 1763, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures a significant moment in history. In this exquisite portrait, we witness the bond between brother and sister as they stand together amidst an idyllic outdoor setting. The young Charles X exudes regal charm with his confident stance and elegant attire, while Marie Clothilde radiates grace and beauty in her fashionable gown and bonnet. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke - from the intricate textile patterns to the lifelike rendering of their pet goat and sheep grazing nearby. A basket filled with luscious fruits adds a touch of opulence to the scene. This painting not only reflects the artistic style of its time but also offers us a glimpse into the royal family dynamics during that period. It foreshadows their respective destinies: Charles X would ascend to become King of France from 1824 until 1830, while Marie Clothilde would go on to become queen consort of Sardinia. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and historical significance - capturing a fleeting moment frozen in time for generations to come.
