EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable painting titled "Ferdinand - Louis XIII of France" by Elle the Elder Ferdinand. The artwork, dating back to the 17th century, is housed in CHISWICK HOUSE, London. It beautifully captures a significant moment in history as it portrays Louis XIII of France alongside his loyal canine companion. The regal ambiance exuded by this portrait is undeniable. Louis XIII, adorned in opulent attire befitting his royal status, stands tall and proud with an air of authority. His stern yet contemplative gaze reveals a glimpse into his character and the weight he carried as a monarch during that era. However, what truly sets this painting apart is the presence of Ferdinand - a magnificent dog who shares center stage with the king himself. This inclusion adds an unexpected touch of humanity to an otherwise formal depiction. Ferdinand's unwavering loyalty and devotion are palpable through his gentle expression and attentive posture. Through this print from Historic England Photo Library, we are transported back in time to witness not only a historical figure but also their intimate connection with animals. This portrayal serves as a testament to how even those holding immense power can find solace and companionship within their furry friends. It is indeed fascinating how art has preserved such moments throughout history, allowing us to appreciate both human accomplishments and our enduring bond with animals across centuries.
