Marie Antoinette - recommended resource

Sep 05, 2007 14:00

For those who've listened the podcast, here's the details on the book I recommended:

Gazette des atours de Marie-Antoinette: garde-robe des atours de la reine: gazette pour l'anne 1782.

Publisher: Runion des muses nationaux: Archives nationales, 2006.

This is a stunning reproduction of Marie-Antoinette's swatch book for 1782, from which she would choose her wardrobe each day. Pricey, but gorgeous, even if you don't read French.

Check Bookfinder for retailers; remember to search for books in French!

18th-century, podcast1, marie antoinette
