<em>Louis XIV of France</em>, also known as <em>Louis the Great </em>or <em>the Sun King</em>, is the ultimate symbol of absolut monarchy. To show his absolute power to the world, he engaged in the construction of the splendid Palace of Versailles, among others. He removed himself and his court from Paris, and move to this new seat of power, where he was the supreme authority in control of everything and everyone.
As an art-lover, he entrusted this work to many artists such as André Le Nôtre, Louis Le Vau, Charles Le Brun and Jules Hardouin-Mansart, and made them clear he wanted Versailles to be a majestic symbol of his absolute power and beauty. The Hall of Mirrors, the central gallery of the palace where 17 windows that overlook the breathtaking gardens reflect on 17 mirrors, summarizes what the Palace of Versailles meant: it exhibits monarchy at its peak.
