Set of four etchings with engraving made by Sébastien Leclerc in 1679, after tapestries by Charles Le Brun.

Charles Le Brun (1619-1690), First Painter of the court of King Louis XIV, was also director of the Manufacture des Gobelins, where tapestries and furniture for the royal palaces were made.

We see the classical gods within baroque border ornaments aggrandizing the life of Louis XIV.
