The Courts of Europe

A Ball at the French Court Painted by an anonymous artist c.1581 (Louvre,Paris)




This a a beautiful book Edited by A.G. Dickens. I am reading and looking at the pictures. It examines twelve courts from 1400-1800. I bought it yesterday for $2.50 cents...... I am drawn to books right now on the Louvre and Paris and anything Marie. I found this beautiful picture of Marie Antoinette and her children....
