The Coronation “Our coronation does not make us kings, but it displays our royalty to the people and makes it more august in us.” -- Louis XIV

Appearance The king's great qualities shone more brilliantly by reason of an exterior so unique and incomparable as to lend infinite distinction to his slightest actions; the very figure of a hero, so impregnated with a natural but most imposing majesty that it appeared even in his most insignificant gestures and movements, without arrogance but with simple gravity; proportions such as a sculptor would choose to model; a perfect countenance and the grandest air and mien ever vouchsafed to man. -- Duc de Saint Simon

Portraits

Symbolism Louis IV as Apollo (Sun God) Equestrian statue of Louis IV (classical style)

Court Entertainments Fireworks Opera performance
