Madame Adélaïde’s Grand Chamber (18×12) After Madame de Pompadour’s death this salon was transferred to the ownership of Madame Adélaïde who transformed it into her Grand Cabinet. The present cornice is restored to the style it had when Madame Adélaïde occupied the room. The lovely instrument belonged to Madame Adélaïde which is most likely also the case with the violin – Madame Adélaïde was renowned for her excellent violin-play.
The two large paintings are of Madame Adélaïde’s elder sisters, Madame Henriette and Madame Elisabeth – both painted by Nattier. The chairs are gilded and lined with Beauvais tapestry.
Welcome to my world of fine art photography. Please take your time and browse through my many galleries. I have a diverse collection of beautiful photographic art. All my artwork begins in the camera before making its journey through my imagination where I process the image into something beautiful and sometimes quite surreal.
