About this book
This richly detailed guide explores the great royal palaces and parks of France—Versailles, Fontainebleau, the Louvre, and more—tracing their architecture, history, and the kings and courtiers who inhabited them. Blending travel, art history, and anecdote, Mansfield brings to life the splendor of French royal architecture and the dramatic events that unfolded within these magnificent settings. Illustrated and informative, it offers an armchair tour of France's most storied residences and gardens. For lovers of history, architecture, and travel, Royal Palaces and Parks of France is an elegant and absorbing companion to the grand monuments of the French monarchy.
