Chateau de Versailles


Richard Mique
1783
Dovecot Cottage, Chateau de Versailles

Commissioned by queen Marie Antoinette to build a small village in which this was the Dovecot Cottage. In-line with the theme at the time: going back to nature. The interior was much more refined than the exterior, but she liked the small cottage style from the outside.
