EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving captures a momentous event in history - the Carousel Given by Louis XIV in front of the Tuileries on 5th June 1662. The focal point of this print is none other than The Prince of Conde, transformed into the majestic Emperor of Turkey for this grand occasion. Dressed in opulent Ottoman attire, The Prince of Conde exudes power and authority as he sits astride his regal horse. His plumed hat adds an extra touch of elegance to his already impressive ensemble. Surrounding him are soldiers and trumpeters, creating a spectacle that mesmerizes all who witness it. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every intricate stitch on the gold brocade fabric can be seen, highlighting the craftsmanship involved in creating such elaborate costumes. This display of horsemanship showcases not only the skill and precision required but also serves as a testament to Louis XIV's commitment to entertainment and extravagance. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one of history's most extravagant events. It reminds us that art has the power to capture moments that would otherwise fade into obscurity, allowing us to appreciate both their beauty and historical significance centuries later.
