Commentary

Représentation inhabituelle du roi. Ce type semble plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux. C’est la première fois que nous proposons un exemplaire à la vente.
Unusual representation of the king. This type seems rarer than general works suggest. This is the first time we are offering a example for sale.
