A winter view of the King's small stables. Until now I had only shown you the big King's stables, which are on the other side of Avenue de Paris. Click on the 'stables' label below for a reminder! There's a strange view of Hoche Place on Artsy Versailles today.----------------------------------------------------
Jusqu'à présent je ne vous avais montré que les Grandes Ecuries du Roi qui se trouvent de l'autre côté de l'avenue de Paris. Vous pouvez les voir en cliquant sur le tag 'stables' ci-dessous. Il y a une vue étrange de la place Hoche sur Artsy Versailles aujourd'hui.

I love the Wenter trees at the King's small stables.
'Small stables'? Seriously?! That's something to behold.
Beautiful photos of winter in Versailles.

Both nice shots, but a particularly like the first one with all the trees.
It's wonderful to imagine what it would have been like to be a stableboy in the king's small stables.
Interesting!
Amazing! How did he manage with the "small" stables? :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
Both are lovely. And artsy.
I would not want to clean those stables. Nice shot.
Obviously their idea of small is quite different than ours! I like those dark lines of trees against the place.
The small stables, eh. Beautiful no matter what. MB
That king sure must have liked his horses.
Et maintenant, c'est le petit parking du président...grandeur et décadence.
Heureusement que tu precises "petites" ecuries.. :o)
J'aime bien la couleur du ciel!
Thanks for the redirect to
'Artsy Versailles'. Ya, neat composition... could be creepy!
The King must have had a lot of horses.
I can only imagine the big stables...
Oh to step back in time and hear the clatter of all those hooves on the cobbles. xxxx
Small eh?! Well for a King I suppose!
Lovely blue skies in these, Ciel, contrasted with the fence and trees.

Small??!! Surely you jest! I'd like to see the grand ones ;-)
I love the frieze at the top of the stables with the horses looking as though they are about to take off...this is one of my favorite places in the Chateau area. Strange how the passage of time has changed it so much from its original state...
Wow, what a property! Oh to be royalty, right?
The way you composed the bottom shot is so cool!
