French Furniture Under Louis XIV

de Felice Roger

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The Louis XIV style is one that chance has endowed with a splendid name, Louis Ouatorze. . . . Those sonorous, sumptuous syllables, as rich as the gold of the Gallery of Mirrors at Versailles, are they not in themselves completely expressive ? If the Louis XV style was to express a whole society of voluptuous refinement, the Louis XIV style is verily the style of the King.
