This is an exquisite photography of Frances most mythical and splendid palace. The largest chateau in the world still holds a thousand and one hidden secrets, even from those who know it intimately. Versailles has been described in great detail since the reign of Louis XIV but numerous apartments in the palace and their outbuildings are inaccessible to the public due to their fragility or state of preservation. From the most renowned rooms to the gardens, passing through the Trianon or the Queens hamlet, Versailles contains many extraordinary details, transformed according to the light or the shadow. From dusk on a summers evening to the veil of mist on a winters morning, these photographs reveal the many facets of Versailles, and offer readers unprecedented access to this historical treasure. For this book, the Chateau de Versailles gave photographer Francis Hammond carte blanche access to the palace and its grounds. An English photographer specialized in interior design and lifestyle, he uniquely captures the exceptional ambience and light of both famous and lesser known places. Marie-Antoinettes boudoir, the wings of the Queens theater, or even the Orangerie on a beautiful wintery day, Secret Versailles is richly illustrated and brings to life this extraordinary theater of unrivaled splendor, this place of hidden secrets, mysteries, and everlasting beauty, which continues to capture the hearts of visitors and aficionados of France from around the world.
