Download or read book French Chateau Living written by Barbara de Nicolay and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing intimate insight into life in a French château, this volume takes readers on an insider’s tour of the Château du Lude, a private residence that features its original decorative interiors. Nestled in the idyllic Loire Valley, the Château du Lude is one of the most historic châteaus in France; Bluebeard besieged the castle on his way to join Joan of Arc’s crusade, and it earned the rare distinction of having survived the French Revolution intact. Today, the Lude is inhabited and impeccably maintained by the Count and Countess Louis-Jean de Nicolay, whose family has owned the property for over 250 years. They invite readers to discover the château’s well-preserved interiors and gardens, which feature a medieval kitchen, an Italian Renaissance studiolo, and exceptional horse stables, offering a glimpse into the lifestyle of the château’s inhabitants, past and present. Newly commissioned photographs offer unprecedented access into the hidden corners of the estate otherwise closed to the general public.

Download or read book Ch teaux of the Loire written by Michel Melot and published by Taschen. This book was released on 1997 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The châteaux of the Loire, that today act as a magnet for thousands of tourists, bear witness to a magnificent past. They are, however, not only monuments in stone to the drive of kings to demonstrate their prestige in architectural form, they also reflect the development of France in the 15th and 16th centuries on the road to absolute monarchy. This volume throws new light on the châteaux. It does not concentrate on the chateau as an individual monument, but on the châteaux in an historical and social context, their political and social symbolic function. Their location, structure and design provide us with insights into the deeper relationships between their architecture and the needs--in a period of upheaval--of those who ordered them to be built. The essays and the abundance of illustrative material, including plans and elevation drawings, offer both the readers of this book and visitors to the châteaux a glimpse behind the façade of a chequered period in the history of France"--Publisher's description, p. [2] of dust jacket.
