Paris: Château de Versailles (Part ii)

2014-chateau-de-versailles-paris-france-39

With all the lights shining down through the domes and flooding through the windows, the Versailles was a glittering world of golden delights. As I walked deeper into the decadent maze of art work and gilded trimmings, it seemed as though I had been transported to a different world altogether. Luxurious hotels seen today seem plain and frugal in comparison. Now, consider the hallway in your home. I don’t know about yours, but mine pretty much has a plain white ceiling with plain white coving to go with it. It’s flat and the only thing attached to it is a fluorescent light. Sound familiar? Now take a look at this:

I can’t even begin to put into words what I felt when I saw this ceiling. In fact, I have spent days in front of this post at loss of words. I believe I shall just let the photos speak for themselves and come back and edit it later if I find my wits again.
