Louis XIV (5 September 1638 – 1 September 1715), known as Louis the Great (Louis le Grand) or the Sun King (le Roi-Soleil), was a monarch of the House of Bourbon who ruled as King of France and Navarre from 1643 until his death in 1715. His reign... Louis XIV rose to power when he was only five years old. Louis XIV was politically educated by Cardinal Mazarin, who chose the sun for Louis’ emblem. It was King Louis XIV who is referred to as “The Sun King” to this day. ” Louis XIV disliked Paris immensely and had a great fear and distaste for revolutionaries and those working against the monarchy. In 1663, two years after assuming absolute power, Louis XIV appointed a supervisor for the royal furniture. In the letter of appointment, the king wrote, “There is nothing that indicates more clearly the magnificence of great princes than their superb palaces and their precious furniture. ” With the intention of glorifying the monarchy, Louis XIV embarked on grand building programs that entailed the design and manufacture of splendid sets of furniture.
