EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Louis XIV cabinet-on-stand, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and opulence. Created by renowned Italian artist Domenico Cucci in collaboration with the Gobelins workshop, this magnificent piece is a testament to the grandeur of the Baroque era. Measuring an impressive 248x154x78 cm, this cabinet-on-stand is adorned with intricate details that leave viewers in awe. The use of gilt-bronze, pietra dura, tortoiseshell, ash, ebonised wood, and parcel-gilt adds layers of richness and sophistication to its design. The cabinet features ornate columns and caryatids that support its structure while delicate swags cascade gracefully around it. Elaborate panels depict exotic beasts and mythical creatures such as unicorns – symbols of power and elegance during Louis XIV's reign. Every inch of this furniture piece reflects the architectural brilliance synonymous with the French monarch's taste. It embodies his title as "the Sun King" or "Louis the Great" showcasing his dominance over France during his rule from 1638 to 1715. This remarkable Louis XIV cabinet-on-stand now resides in a private collection but continues to captivate art enthusiasts worldwide. Its presence evokes a sense of wonderment at the skillful fusion of sculpture and furniture-making techniques from centuries past.
