VERSAILLES II

sit back... relax...listen to KANYE and let me tell you about the rest of Versailles while I still have internet connection :)

While at Versailles we took a tour of the private artwork collection....zzzzzzz lol apparently during the 19th century both men and women of high status wore red heels..so naturally Louboutin is a genius for the historical reference...and with my serious interest in historical costume I should have a pair by now (hi mom! hi dad! :) lol


COLLEGE DROPOUT haha

Jeff Koon sculpture....you guessed it Mike Jack-O with billy jean...but thats not his lover...its just a monkey :/ I dont know how I feel about his work...and I dont know if it is versailles worthy...but who am I to judge...I think it is amusing but I am not really a fan of Modern art anyway...I mean the best modern sculpture I have seen is Ron Mueck the guy is NUTZ! definately google him..he does really huge and very very tiny sculptures of very realistic looking people...



Louis XIV's bedchamber..it was so overwhelming i had to take the pic in TWO PARTS! his bed occupied the exact center of the chateau from 1701 onward... He considered himself the Sun King so literally he felt the sun should rise and shine out of his...well i'll let you finish the rest! Anyway It was a key setting for events...
