S2#28🇺🇸🇬🇧The story of Maisons and René de Longueil
from Com d'Archi
In the summer of 2020, we discussed in 5 minutes the subject of the French castle of Maisons, located in Maisons-Laffitte (78), in the Com d'Archi S1#16. It was the opportunity to meet Béatrice Vivien, a specialist of the subject. Béatrice accepted our invitation to share some of her many new discoveries about the castle and its estate. Working at the Château de Maisons itself and questioning a whole aspect of its history that had remained in the shadows, she was led to defend her thesis, under the direction of Claude Mignot, in 2014, entitled: "The residences and collections of a great lord: René de Longueil, president of Maisons (1597-1677)". In her academic research, Béatrice (with humility), titillates the pre-established chronology, reinjecting fragments of life into the theory!Note that this castle and its domain, designed by the architect François Mansart, served as inspiration for the development of the Palace of Versailles under Louis XIV king.In this English version of Com d'Archi Podcast S2#28 we offer the resum of Béatrice Vivien's thesis.Podcast recorded on November 25, 2020.___If you like the podcast do not hesitate:. to subscribe so you don't miss the next episodes,. to leave us stars and a comment :-),. to follow us on Instagram @comdarchipodcast to find beautiful images, always chosen with care, so as to enrich your view on the subject.Nice week to all of you !
