Characters of Château de Versailles

This design is inspired by the Queen’s Theatre and pays tribute to the Château de Versailles’ most iconic characters. The main characters are depicted on stage performing a play. The audience can admire the Sun King suspended in midair amongst the clouds. Marie-Antoinette is seated to the left on a giant cake. Maria Leszczynska is on horseback in the center and Madame de Pompadour to the right on a swing. All of this is immortalized backstage by the painter Jacques-Louis David. Molière is observing the stage via a trapdoor underneath it.

Architecture of Château de Versailles



This design highlights the iconic architectural elements of the Château de Versailles. Here we have the Royal Gate in yellow in the foreground. This contrasts wonderfully with the dominant royal blue, and one of the facades of the former royal residence in the background. The sky is lit up with fireworks and the fleur-de-lis, the symbol of royalty. The design is framed by the black and white Cour de Marbre.
