History
Louis Quinze depicts a 110-gun ship of the line, the strongest type built in France in the late 17th century. The model is attributed to one of the model workshops of the shipyards of the Navy, and dated to around 1720.Template:Sfnp
The model is lavishly decorated, a feature characteristic of prestige warships of the Louis XIV era. It served as educational support for royal princes, including the actual Louis XV when he was still heir to the throne.Template:SfnpTemplate:Sfnp
The model features unrealistic details, notably archaisms and English manierism that were in fashion when it was made.Template:Sfnp
