The cover of Goldberg nº 3 featured a portrait of Philip V of Spain. This issue’s cover shows his grandfather, Louis XIV of France.
Two Bourbons in five issues is something of a record.
Kept at Versailles (Oronoz), this portrait is the personification of ambition. The young man clad in armour is not yet the Sun King, but his tight lips and penetrating gaze seem to tell us that he knows he will be.
His whole future is ahead of him, and he has the strength to make it all come true: conquests and battles, wives and lovers, architects and musicians, Versailles and Lully. |
