Portret van Lodewijk X 1755 - 1765

This engraving by Sébastien Pinssio, created between 1755 and 1765, depicts Louis X, also known as Louis the Quarreler, the King of France. The portrait is a classic example of engraved portraiture, featuring a detailed depiction of the King in profile, wearing a crown and ornate robes. The use of hatching and stippling creates the illusion of volume and texture, rendering the King's face and clothing with remarkable detail. The image is framed by a decorative oval border, adding to the sense of formality and historical significance. This engraving is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the visual representation of French royalty during the 18th century.
