Jacques-Louis David.
Louis XIV was the great-grandfather of Louis XV. Louis XIV had a son: Louis, dauphin of France. This son married and got a son as well: Louis, duke of Burgundy. This latter also had a son, and this was Louis XV. Because Louis dauphin of France and Louis duke of Burgundy both died at a very young age, Louis XV could become King. He did so, aged 5 in 1715.

Louis XIV was a Roman Catholic.
Only counting the legitimate line: Louis XIV's grandsons were Louis Duke of Burgundy, Philip V of Spain and Charles Duke of Berry, who were the sons of his only son Louis the Dauphin (Crown prince). Sadly, Both the Dauphin and his eldest son the Duke of Burgundy died before Louis XIV, leaving the elderly king's only heir and eventual successor to be his toddler great-grandson Louis Duke of Anjou who ascended as Louis XV when Louis XIV died in 1715. And yes, contrary to popular belief Louis XV is not the son of Louis XIV but rather his great-grandson

Contrary to the fashion of today, when it is women who wear high heels, in Louis XIV's era, it was perfectly normal for wealthy, upper class men to wear them. Louis especially wanted heels, because for a man of his time, he was short in height (perhaps five feet four) and heels made him look more dominant and imposing. The red color stood for the military, and in a number of countries, soldiers wore red (remember the British troops-- the Redcoats-- in the Revolutionary War).
