K. LOEILLOT-HARTWIG (*1798), King Louis-Philippe I, Lithography Karl Loeillot-Hartwig (1798 Szczecin - 1841 Paris): King Louis-Philippe I on horseback, 19th century, Lithography Technique: Lithography on Paper Inscription: Lower right signed in the printing plate: "Loeillot". At the lower part inscribed in the printing plate: "I. Lith. de Gihaut frères éditeurs, - Boulevard des Italiens N° 5 / Louis-Philippe Ier. Roi des Français". Date: 19th century Description: While Karl Loeillot-Hartwig, known primarily as a lithographer, had not only contributed to the cult of the exile with his print The Emperor Ploughs a Furrow (ca. 1823), but also admonished the connection between good government and the pre-revolutionary demand for agrarian reforms, in this lithograph he provides an apotheosis of the so-called Citizen King. Louis-Philippe I rides over the barricades of the July Revolution of 1830, which brought him to power, surrounded by soldiers and ordinary citizens cheering him on. Although a few agitated expressions are reminiscent of the past unrest, the mass of the people make gestures of homage. Loeillot heightens this scene to an epiphany of the king by precisely contrasting the horse and rider with more freely drawn and coarsely hatched areas. The statue of Athena looking down from a podium also appears significant. Indeed, the extent of the monarch's symbolic exaggeration can only be understood by recourse to classical pictorial formulae. While the Roman emperor rode over the bodies of defeated enemies, here it is the new king who, as the guarantor of order and prosperity, triumphs over the signs of disorder, and this under the eyes of Athena, the patron goddess of ancient virtuous heroes. Person: Depicted: Bürgerkönig; King Louis-Philippe I., France (1773 Paris - 1850 Claremont House, Esher, Surrey) Was French king in the so-called July Monarchy from 1830 to 1848. He is also known as the Citizen King (French Roi Citoyen or Roi Bourgeois). His official title was "King of the French" and no longer "King of France and Navarre", which the French kings since Henry IV had borne.
