La colonnade du Grand Trianon

An archive photo today: the very classical marble colonnade of the Grand Trianon castle in the Palace grounds.

Classique en marbre, ceci est une photo prise l'an passé.

  1. This is so cool-looking (I mean that literally)...cool and clean and shiny. And, as Lorrie said, elegant!

    By the way, we ate in a little bakery cafe for lunch today...French-themed...we had baguette sandwiches which were delicious!

  17. Beautiful composition. I love the arches and how the wallpaper doesn't really match the floor! I think Louis needed a better interior decorator. :)

  21. Besides your flower photos (and many others), I think the palace photos are among my faves, since I've never been there. This is wonderful. However, I have to report that B SQUARED just scared me.
