EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a moment of historical significance as L'Amour, depicted in the lower right corner, presents a portrait to Louis XV. The painting within a painting concept adds an intriguing depth to this artwork by Alexis Simon Belle, who was renowned for his talent during the 18th century. Measuring at 0.99x1.24 meters, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Château de Versailles in France. In this scene, L'Amour presents Louis XV with a portrait of his fiancée, Marie Anne Victoire, who was also known as the Infante of Spain. The meeting between these two figures symbolizes not only their union but also the merging of French and Spanish cultures through marriage. The inclusion of Cupid Eros (L'Amour) highlights the mythological aspect associated with love and romance that often permeated royal portraits during that era. This artistic choice adds an ethereal touch to the composition while emphasizing the importance of love and passion within their relationship. As we gaze upon this photograph from Fine Art Finder taken by Photo Josse, we are transported back in time to witness this significant encounter between royalty and mythology. It serves as a reminder of how art can immortalize moments in history while showcasing both beauty and symbolism intertwined seamlessly on canvas.
