Sculptuur van Lodewijk XI, koning van Frankrijk 1818 - 1848

This 19th-century engraving by Italian artist Jacopo Bernardi depicts Louis XI, King of France, in a kneeling pose. Created between 1818 and 1848, the work captures the monarch in a moment of prayer, highlighting his piety and devotion. Bernardi's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate folds of Louis XI's regal robes and the subtle rendering of his features. The engraving's focus on a historical figure and its reverence for traditional forms aligns it with the Neoclassical style popular in the early 19th century.
