Engraving with etching of Louis XIV, King of France. A view of an equestrian statue of Louis XIV, showing the King in classical armour on horseback, holding the reins in left hand and with right arm extended. The statue is shown in a yard, resting on a series of three rollers in preparation for relocation to the Place Louis le Grand (now the Place Vendome) in 1699. To the right, a workman can be seen carrying a large wooden beam, with two figures observing the scene in the background. Within a decorative frame, cut down without inscriptions.
