The piece, dated to the late 17th or early 18th century, captures an intimate family scene featuring prominent members of the French royal family engaged in a game of backgammon. The subjects of the artwork are Louis, Duke of Burgundy (d. 1712); Philip, Duke of Anjou (1683-1746), who later became King Philip V of Spain; and Charles, Duke of Berry, alongside their father, Louis, Dauphin of France (d. 1711).
This artwork is significant for its portrayal of the heirs to the French throne and their familial interactions away from the formalities of court life. It offers a glimpse into the private lives of the French royalty during the reign of Louis XIV, also known as the Sun King, who was the longest-reigning monarch in European history. The presence of backgammon, a game with ancient origins, reflects the leisure activities of the European aristocracy at the time.
Nicolas Bonnart's work is characterized by its attention to detail and the fashion of the period, often capturing the sitters in contemporary attire. "The Grandchildren of Louis XIV Playing Backgammon" is no exception, as it showcases the elaborate clothing and hairstyles of the late 17th-century French nobility. The artwork serves not only as a historical document but also as a piece that reflects the artistic style and cultural interests of the era.
As a visual record of the royal family, the painting is a valuable resource for historians and art enthusiasts alike. It contributes to the understanding of the dynastic relationships within the House of Bourbon and the social customs of the time. The artwork is an important piece within the oeuvre of Nicolas Bonnart and stands as a testament to the rich cultural and political tapestry of France during the reign of Louis XIV.
