FRENCH FURNITURE UNDER LOUIS XIV Large Arm-chair covered in Wool Velvet (End of the Louis XIV style) LITTLE ILLUSTRATED BOOKS ON FRENCH FURNITURE II FRENCH FURNITURE UNDER LOUIS XIV BY ROGER DE FELICE Translated by F. M. ATKINSON ILLUSTRATED. NEW YORK FREDERICK A. STOKES COMPANY '^'/^^ , ? u4 eKJ\J\ Printed in Great Britain ' hi K- 5 b f'i> INTRODUCTION: SOME SETS OF FURNITURE UNDER m \/ LOUIS XIV The Louis XIV style is one that chance has en- dowed with a splendid name, Louis Ouatorze. Those sonorous, sumptuous syllables, as rich as the gold of the Gallery of Mirrors at Versailles, are they not in themselves completely expressive ? If the Louis XV style was to ex- press a whole society of voluptuous refinement, the Louis XIV style is verily the style of the King. It was to satisfy his taste, to express his mind, to titillate his pride and to proclaim his glory that Le Brun and Le Pautre devised their pompous decorations, that Perrault and Mansard marshalled their columns and raised their cupolas, that Le Nostre planted his alleys on lines meted out by stretched cords, that the Kellers founded bronze, that Domenico Cucci and Claude Ballin chased precious metals, that Andre-Charles Boulle cunningly wedded brass and tortoise shell with ebony in the Louvre, and at the Gobelins the lapidaries matched the stones of Florence, the cabinet-makers put together their ingenious cabinets, the silver- smiths made tables and pots for orange trees out of solid silver, the tapestry workers wove their enormous hangings stitch by stitch, while at vi INTRODUCTION Tourlaville the glass workers made mirrors larger and clearer than those of Venice, Whole volumes might be written on the Louis XV and Louis XVI styles without even a mention of the princes whose names they bear, but this would be quite impossible with the style we are about to discuss in this little book.

  • Portraits of Paris Squares
    feuille internationale d’architecture PORTRAITS OF PARIS SQUARES 9 ATTILA BATAR la collection Portraits of squares; what a nice idea! “An abstract space has no visage, it rather has a multiplicity of visages”, according to Béla Hamvas, the Hungarian thinker . It is a matter of city spaces, squares, which have both personality and ambience. Among the five hundred Parisian squares , Attila has selected nineteen of them. By his own admission, this choice is a personal one. Then, why should not this book remain a personal business and to what extent is it worth of our interest? May be because it makes us acquainted with these places? Many things. If we visit the city as tourists, this book will guide us towards very characteristic places in the city, even not appearing in travelers' guides. If we are also interested in the history of architecture, we shall learn much on the history of the buildings which contribute to mould the personality of Parisian squares, either famous or neglected. And if we have some Cartesian spirit, we shall realize how their forms and their arrangement affect our senses, how they do influence our states of mind. We shall thus discover how squares can or ATTILA BATAR cannot ease movement, the feeling of freedom, the joy of spending a moment there: we shall learn why some squares are more functional than others. PORTRAITS OF PARIS SQUARES Attila Batar paints and finely analyzes these portraits of the squares. He relies on his background as a historian, a sociologist and an architect as well as on his rich living experience and his frequent visits to those places for some decades.
