Stretcher from a console table from the Queen's bed chamber at Versailles ca. 1730 Jules Degoullons French Louis XIV was succeeded in 1715 by his great-grandson Louis XV (1710-1774), then only five years old. During the eight years that Philippe II, due d'Orléans (1674-1723), served as regent (the Régence period), the court moved back to Paris, but in 1723, when the young king came of age, Versailles once again became the main royal residence. Two years later Louis XV married Marie Leszczynska (1703-1768), daughter of Stanislas I of Poland (r. 1704-9 and 1733-36), and she was given the quarters in the palace that had belonged to the queen consort of Louis XIV, Marie Thérèse (1638-1683). As part of the renovation of the queen's bed chamber after the birth of the dauphin in September 1729, a new pier glass and matching console table were made for the room by sculptors Jules Degoullons, Mathieu Legoupil (active 1714-35), and Jacques Verberckt (1704-1771) following Robert de Cotte's design
