[Louis XI]
Matheus fecit. [n.d., c.1680.] Engraving. Sheet 195 x 145mm (7¾ x 5¾"). Trimmed within plate. A full length portrait of Louis XI (1423-83), standing before a table on which is a small clock. Through the window are two figures with armies meeting, probably a reference to the Treaty of Picquigny, in which Louis paid Edward IV a large sum of money to withdraw his army away from France and renounce English claims to Normandy and other French lands, thus ending the Hundred Years' War.
