"Medaillon med portrætter af Ludvig XVI, hans dronning og søn" is an engraving by G. N. Angelo, created in 1793, depicting Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, and their son Louis-Joseph, the Dauphin. The artwork shows the three figures in profile, with the king in the center, his queen on the left, and their son on the right. The image is framed by a circular border, and the inscription “VOTEX LES ST FLEEREE IKE” is visible below the medallion, which suggests a melancholic tone. The engraving is a powerful reminder of the tragic fate of the French royal family during the French Revolution.
