Painting Description
"Perspective View of the Ballroom Constructed in the Courtyard of the Hotel de Ville in Paris on the Occasion of the Dauphin's First Marriage to Marie-Therese (1638-83), Infanta of Spain" is a notable work by the French engraver and artist Charles-Nicolas II Cochin (1715–1790). This detailed engraving captures the grandeur and elaborate design of the temporary ballroom erected for the celebratory event of the marriage between Louis XIV's son, the Dauphin of France, and Marie-Therese of Spain in 1660. The marriage was a significant political alliance between France and Spain, and the festivities reflected the importance of the union.
Charles-Nicolas Cochin was renowned for his skill in depicting architectural views and festive occasions with precision and elegance. In this work, Cochin meticulously illustrates the intricate decorations, the spatial depth of the structure, and the lively atmosphere of the celebration. The perspective view allows the viewer to appreciate the scale and the opulence of the setting, which was designed to impress and entertain the distinguished guests.
The engraving not only serves as a historical record of the event but also exemplifies the grandiose style of entertainment during the reign of Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, whose patronage of the arts led to a flourishing of French culture. Cochin's work is an invaluable visual document that provides insight into the social and cultural life of the French aristocracy in the 17th century, as well as the artistry involved in creating such a lavish spectacle.
This piece by Cochin is held in high regard for its artistic merit and historical significance, offering a glimpse into the past where art and statecraft intertwined to celebrate a momentous occasion in the history of France and Spain.
