Real Royalty

Күн бұрын

Louis XIV was so powerful he took his name from the sun itself. So dominant he made the haughtiest aristocrats bend to his will. He was so insatiable that no one mistress could satisfy him for long. Throughout a long and turbulent life, Louis sought magnificence in all things. At the heart of this was the worlds most famous palace…Versailles

Versailles is incomprehensible... when I saw it, I gasped. The Hall of Mirrors is beyond beautiful... During the revolution items were removed from the building; but, Noone was permitted to harm the building or the grounds... the pride of France. Versailles is a gift to all of us from Louis XIV.

When I first saw the Galerie de Glaces I was lucky to be there on a quiet day. There were perhaps just ten people in the gallery all at the one end. As I stepped forward I must have had the same experience as the Sun King, seemingly just me and the long sweep of the gallery. It was an unbelievable experience, and, to be honest, I felt so overwhelmed by the beauty that tears were stinging my eyes. Something I shall never forget.

Absolutely. We must not forget this. I admire the palace, but one gold curtain hanger in the king's bedroom was worth more than the entire possessions of a peasant's family. The system of government, the ancien regime, had the peasants paying all the taxes and fighting all the wars, in addition to doing the hard labour, whilst the nobility lived the life of Riley. When we see this, can we say such a wonderful country? In all fairness, the subsequent kings Louis XV and XIV tried desperately to reform government, but without success, and ultimately it led, of course, to revolution.

Although I naturally agree that Versailles is beyond beautiful, I can’t help but imagine the plight of desperately poor people of France at that time and, when viewed from this perspective, every superlative applied to the King’s vision simply highlights the obscene _human_ cost of this palace. And it also seems to me that the kings who held most fervently to their “divine right” were the very despots who could not have cared less for their poorest subjects, a very sick juxtaposition to be sure.

Their population would increase and you would create even more mouths to feed until you have exhausted your resources. Charity only creates further dependancy. Only self sufficiency can solve that problem, and a lot has been done towards that goal. That being said: if you feel so strongly about that issue, nothing prevents you from using some of your own disposable income to donate to such a cause.

While watching this video as an assignment for a class, I expected myself to be bored and uninterested. Surprisingly, I actually enjoyed it. The video was very fascinating and interesting. King Louis was all about flashy things. He desired compliments and words of affection and the minute things were not suiting his desire for admiration he changed it. Take his mistresses for example, he moved from mistress to mistress each one more dedicated to him then the next. Louis XIV also made sure all his buildings were something others would marvel along. Things that would leave people speechless and with his legacy. Take his envelope design for example he wanted something different, something new and unique. Something people would be awed by. And he did it at the expense of the townspeople. Although I think Versailles is beyond beautiful, I can’t help but imagine the poor people of France at that time and how they were treated during and after Versailles was built. The obscene cost of this palace seems to me that the kings who held most to their “blood right” were the very despots who could not have cared less for the people they were supposed to care for. Not only did Louis show extreme discourtesy to his subjects he was also a mockery of a man towards the women in his life. Louis XIV did things extremely backwards, giving his mistress 20 rooms and his wife 11. He not only loved his mistress more than he loved his wife but also had multiple mistresses throughout his lifetime. He discarded each one faster than the last. In the end of the documentary, I stand by the statement that Versailles is incomprehensible regardless of the pain and exertion used to make their self-centered king happy.

Versailles was beautiful when I visited a few years ago. They only opened part of the structure as the rest was under renovation, and in a short few hours, I could only manage to take photos as quickly as I could, and managed only to stroll part of the Grand Trianon, and didn't have the chance to visit the Petit Trianon. Trop magnifique.

"his cherubic face" - yes, if his portraits are all you go by. both louis xiv and elizabeth i - among many other notables throughout history - survived smallpox, and thus would have had pockmarks on their face, among other places. it is interesting to ponder what blemishes and disfigurements portrait and court artists omitted throughout the ages.

Modern construction work is nothing compared to what these men and women endured. In all honesty the only real discomfort i endured was rhe blazing summer heat. If one wasnt accustomed to working with their hands and lifting it may be hard today but even then someone with reasonable mental toughness can over rcome that and do fine.

Also, although the palace was magnificent there weren’t enough loos, so there used to be a few ‘surprises’ deposited behind pillars and in little alcoves etc. So seemingly the palace used to pong to high hell as well.

it'll be like twitter today, where you can instantly talk to people of your statue, remember, these high nobles doesn't view peasants as the same, so i'm sure they would have preferred the company of fellow high nobles.

The Versailles palace is undoubtedly stunning and one of a kind- but honestly it's not wrong to say he should have thought of paying off the war debt and improving the people's lot 🙄

I like to believe that all those people who lived terrible lives at the time,... came back to live life again and again in times when they can travel to Versailles and see the palace. Especially those who built the palace, and the servants. Fantasy, but,... poetic justice.

This is the King whose narcissistic, wasteful spending bankrupted France - and ultimately led to the beheading the good Louis XVI who could not quickly enough undo the damage of what had gone before...if Such is life: often the innocent must pay for the misdeeds of the self-absorbed.

Wow I totally agree with your comment and it’s very rare to see people actually acknowledge that Louis XIV was the one who led France to ruin and not Louis XVI or Marie Antoinette as some people choose to believe. Meanwhile Louis XVI did some questionable decisions, he was never taught how to reign. And his Grandfather Louis XV also ruined France’s economy terribly. Then two kids were put on a throne to reign when they weren’t supposed to. No wonder they didn’t know how to manage a country and at the end of the day they were blamed for their ancestors action’s.

Narcissistic and wasteful? How mistaken you are my friend. Don't you realize that 82 million tourists visit France to see the glory of the sun king? imagine all the money that tourism brings to France!!!

Louis XVI helped bankroll the American Revolution. That, 16's indecisiveness, Marie's perception as an over spender and the "Little Ice Age" is what did Him in.
