EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "King Louis XIV and family playing bagatelle, Versailles, 1694.1906" takes us back to a moment of leisure and joy in the grandeur of Versailles. The image depicts King Louis XIV, his family, and courtiers engrossed in a game of bagatelle within the opulent First Apartment. In this snapshot from history, we witness the playful side of royalty as they gather around a beautifully adorned table to enjoy this popular French pastime. King Louis XIV himself is seen engaging with his children - Philippe I, Duke of Anjou; Charles, Duke of Berry; and Louis, Grand Dauphin - creating an intimate scene that humanizes these iconic figures. The lithograph captures not only the aristocratic splendor but also highlights the significance of recreation and family bonds during this era. It showcases how even amidst their royal duties and responsibilities, moments like these were cherished by both young and old alike. With its black-and-white composition adding a touch of nostalgia to the scene's historical context, this print transports us back to seventeenth-century France. Created by Antoine Trouvain in 1906 as part of Henry Rene d'Allemagne's book on games and pastimes called "Recreations et Passe-Temps" it serves as a window into an era where artistry met entertainment. As we gaze upon this lithograph from Bridgeman Images' collection at Fine Art Finder today, we are reminded that beyond power and politics lies humanity's universal desire for connection through playfulness and shared experiences.
