The French Royal Wardrobe: The Hotel de la Marine Restored, is as stunning a book as they come. I pored over the book for several hours, devouring every page.
This hotel is a monument on Paris’s Place de la Concorde, constructed in the eighteenth century by Ange-Jacques Gabriel. It is decorated with the King’s furniture and the crown’s treasures.
The restoration was completed in 2021, and the building opened to the public. The history throughout the hotel is breathtaking.
