Louis succeeded his father, Charles VII, in 1461 and dedicated himself to strengthening France after the tumultuous Hundred Years War. The image portrays a regal monarch dressed in medieval attire, adorned with an elegant hat that symbolizes his authority. The engraving captures the essence of this enigmatic ruler who played a significant role in shaping French history. His reign marked a turning point for France as he implemented various reforms to consolidate power and establish a centralized monarchy. Known for his cunning political strategies, Louis XI successfully expanded royal control over feudal territories and diminished the influence of powerful nobles. This portrait serves as a reminder of Louis XI's legacy as one of France's most consequential kings.
