EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Collection de M le baron Pichon, Une Fabrique de cartes sous Louis XIV" takes us back to the grandeur of the 17th century. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a bustling card-making factory during the reign of Louis XIV. The scene is alive with activity as workers diligently craft playing cards in this magnificent paper manufacturing facility. The intricate details and meticulous precision depicted in this image transport us to a time when every card was made by hand with utmost care. Commissioned for Le Magasin Pittoresque in 1877, this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship involved in producing these exquisite playing cards. It offers a glimpse into an era when gaming was not only a popular pastime but also an opportunity for artistic expression. Louis XIV, known as the Sun King or Louis the Great, ruled over France during its golden age. His patronage of arts and culture contributed significantly to France's cultural legacy. This engraving serves as a testament to his influence on various industries, including card making. Now preserved within a private collection, this print from Bridgeman Images reminds us of the rich history behind everyday objects like playing cards and invites us to imagine ourselves immersed in that vibrant world centuries ago.
