Versailles interiors again

Perfectly pink is this fabulous rug!


And of course the furniture is equally fabulous!


Another view.


Look at the fine woodwork!


Isn't this rug lovely?

More from the private rooms. 

Wow, right?


Not my style but impressive, no?


I really like the woodwork on this desk.


More clocks to come. Again the Sun King theme.


Hard to imagine calling this place home.

Versailles Private rooms Part One

Took the 2pm tour for English speakers.


The private rooms hold little original furnishings.


So much was taken by peasants in the Revolution.


But some is slowly being returned.


Still interesting to see.


And to imagine life there.
