Seven years of VDP... Everything began on 31 January 2009... The 'the king is dead' exhibition draws to a close with later funerals. This is a reconstitution of Louis XVIII's funeral in 1824, with XIXth century replicas of the original emblems of the monarchy that are kept in the Louvre museum.

Formidable comes to mind with these shot. Quite a mark to reach!
And when he died, he ended up with just as much as the poorest Parisian!
Seven years? Congrats!
Wow seven years that's quite something, a big well done, lots more to come pleeease...love the drama of these pictures..
Gorgeous materials.
The setting is so dramatic, Ciel! 7 years - seems to long but goes so fast - looking forward to many more!
Congratulations! You have shown great effort, perseverance and art. Your blog is one of the most enjoyable around.
We have no equivalent of your memorials for the death of kings. Perhaps all the to-do over David Bowie is as close as we get.
The garments are most impressive. Still beautiful in photos.
Congratulations Ciel!
