    In Jean-Antoine Watteau's The Signboard of Gersaint, a portrait of LouisXIV is being placed in a storage box because Louis had recently had died.

    Normally, the painting is interpreted as a commentary on the shift in aristocratic culture - or relief - that occurred during the government of the more licentious Régent Philippe II, Duke of Orléans (1715-1723), after the death of Louis XIV and before the accession to the throne of Louis XV.
