Hardcover, VG+/VG (light shelf wear bo boards and dust jacket. Pages are very crisp and clean), European Architecture, French Castles; Marly, French Architecture; General Reference-European Architecture|European Architecture, French Castles, Navy boards with stamped gilt lettering, color illustrated dust jacket, blue spine with white lettering, 255 pp, profusely illustrated mostly in color illustrations, maps, and plans. Text in French. "There is something of an opera setting to this ensemble born for party and entertainment and vanished as soon as it is over. The hermitage created by Louis XIV, carefully and patiently decorated, contrasts in everything with the traditional architecture of the castles. Nestled in the hollow of the greenery, in a valley between Louveciennes and Marly, it stands out for its site, for the originality of its composition, for its decor. It is to Italy or Spain that one thinks, much more than of France, when discovering this royal dwelling with solar symbolism, painted in the brightest colors, imitating here the precious marbles, there the 'gold and lapis lazuli, and those multiple little pavilions aligned along the main perspective of the gardens, which revolved around him like so many satellites. Finally, here is the overall work that was missing on this house. A reference edition, incorporating the most recent research, but also a very beautiful book, thanks to its abundant iconography: paintings, plans, watercolor surveys, portraits of Marly's guests, reproductions of the many works that remain from the creation of the King-Sun. All this in order to revive, today, what was undoubtedly the most astonishing example of 17th century French architecture." dust jacket. , Geneve, [PU: Vögele]<
