EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the opulent gardens of the royal Palace of Versailles in France, during a momentous celebration. The Basin of Apollo and the canals are bathed in a mesmerizing illumination, casting an ethereal glow over this magnificent scene. The year is 1770, and it marks the joyous union between the dauphin, who would later become King Louis XVI, and Marie Antoinette of Austria. This event was captured by Jean Michel Moreau in his contemporary painting that beautifully depicts this grand occasion. As we gaze at this image, we are transported to a time when courtiers adorned in exquisite attire mingled with one another amidst the splendor of Versailles. The crowd gathers around the basin as Apollo, a deity from Greco-Roman mythology presiding over music and arts, stands tall at its center. The fine artistry displayed here showcases not only Moreau's talent but also highlights the architectural marvels that make up Versailles' enchanting park. The cascading fountains and meticulously manicured gardens create an idyllic backdrop for such festivities. This photograph print captures both admiration for French royalty and fascination with historical events. It serves as a reminder of an era where extravagance reigned supreme within upper-class circles. Let yourself be transported to this world filled with romance, celebration, and timeless beauty through "VERSAILLES: I
