This engraving, created by Jacob Willem Strunck between 1781 and 1813, depicts a portrait of King Louis XVI of France and his family. The circular frame containing the portrait is placed atop a structure with a framed image below. The top portion of the engraving showcases the King, Queen Marie Antoinette, and their two children, Marie-Therese-Charlotte and Louis-Joseph. The bottom portion features a depiction of a building with a bridge in the foreground, perhaps representing the royal family's connection to a specific place or event. This engraving exemplifies the popular art form of portraiture during the late 18th century, capturing the likeness of prominent figures and preserving them for posterity.
