This engraving by Benoit Louis Prévost, created in 1788, depicts a scene from the "Histoire de la Maison de Bourbon". The image shows King Henry IV of France surrounded by nobles in an interior setting. A man kneels before the king, potentially acknowledging his authority. This artwork provides a visual representation of the historical period and the power dynamics of the French monarchy. The scene is characterized by its formal composition, with the figures arranged in a hierarchical manner, reflecting the social order of the time. The engraving, with its detailed costumes and architectural elements, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and opulence of the Bourbon court. The title "Interieur met Hendrik IV te midden van edelen, een man knielt voor hem" is a Dutch translation of "Interior with Henry IV among nobles, a man kneels before him".
