OS QUATRO CATIVOS - Louvre

7/16/08
OS QUATRO CATIVOS,
representa as QUATRO NAÇÕES VENCIDAS (seu outro título) no Tratado de Nimega (1679), que pôs fim aos ataques franceses às Províncias Unidas (hoje Holanda), que tinham o apoio da España, do Sacro Império Romano Germânico e Brandemburgo.
O autor da escultura: Martin van den Bogaert conhecido como Martin Desjardins.

Retiradas do pedestal da estátua de Luis XIV, que existia na Place des Victoires (Praça das Vitórias) - onde hoje existe uma estátua de Luis XVIII. Cada elemento representa uma das nações vencidas no Tratado de Nimega e expressa uma reação diferente à captura: revolta, esperança, resignação e mágoa.

Após o conjunto ter sido desmontado, em 1792, foi realocado Les Invalides (1804-1939). Em 1960 foi transferido para o Louvre, onde está até hoje.

Seu autor, Martin Desjardins (nome galicizado do eminente escultor holandês), bastante ativo durante o reinado de Luís XIV, responsável, ainda, pela decoração do Hôtel Salé (hoje Museu Picasso).

FOUR CAPTIVES
also known as Four Defeated Nations: Spain, the Holy Roman Empire, Brandenburg, and Holland
(Martin van den Bogaert known as Martin Desjardins)

Taken from the pedestal of the statue in the Place des Victoires, these captives represent the nations defeated by the Treaty of Nijmegen (1679). Each expresses a different reaction to captivity: revolt, hope, resignation, or grief. They were first kept in the Invalides (1804-1939) then allocated to the Louvre in 1960 and placed in the grounds of the Château de Sceaux from 1961 to 1992.
The Captives surrounded the pedestal of the statue of Louis XIV on foot in the Place des Victoires. They are by Martin Desjardins, the gallicized name of an eminent Dutch sculptor active during the reign of Louis XIV, who had already made his name with the decoration of the Hôtel Salé (now the Musée Picasso). The monument was commissioned in 1679 by François d'Aubusson, duke of La Feuillade and marshal of France, who had distinguished himself in the campaigns in Franche-Comté and Sicily. He was an astute courtier, and thought it opportune to raise a grandiose monument to the glory of his king. As a setting for the statue, he persuaded the city to open up an immense square and he had the architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart design it. The square was named Place des Victoires in homage to France's victories in the Dutch War, which ended in 1679 with the Treaty of Nijmegen. The monument was inaugurated in 1686.
