Versailles - Treasures From the Palace Exhibition

While we were in Canberra at the weekend we went to two exhibitions. Here is a collage of some of the exhibits at the Versailles - Treasures from the Palace exhibition at the National Gallery of Australia.

If anyone lives in or near Canberra this exhibition is well worth a visit.

I haven't had much chance yet to catch up on 365 since we got home again and we are out this evening.

Thanks to everyone who commented on my recent photos, I will catch up when I can.

Great collage

[Leslie]

Great collage and fabulous imagines

[Rachel]

I can't imagine living amoungst these things. Life is surely different for those palace dwellers.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great collage- it's great they let you take photos. Most museums here don't allow it.

[Marnie]

Crikey, imagine the dusting in that place. Doesn't bear thinking about.

[Babs]

@stray_shooter When will you be back in Australia Ron. This exhibition is on until 17 April

[Babs]

@888rachel The opulence of the times were incredible. No wonder they had a revolution. Lovely to see the exhibition, but far too fussy for me.

[Babs]

@golftragic Dusting, what's dusting, ha ha. Know what you mean though, must have been a nightmare for the servants. Hope they didn't have any breakages deducted from their wages.

[Babs]

@olivetreeann You are allowed to take photos in most places here as long as you don't use flash.

[Ron]

@onewing Sadly I will not be returning within that time frame....as much as I'd love too!

[Jen Hudson]

Great collage to show all these lovely items. I went to Versailles when I was about 17 but I really can't remember it all. I certainly appreciate seeing all these treasurers now I am older. It's great that you have these exhibitions to enable people to see them.

[Stephanie]

Lovely collage Babs, so many beautiful things to look at.

[Marnie]

@onewing Nah, not likely. Probably flogged or sent to the guillotine.

[Babs]

@golftragic Probably right Marnie.

[Masquerade]

Beautiful collage -well put together, that took thought!
