The Louvre is the repository for the great treasures of royal patronage. The gifts to kings and queens on display include the hard-stone vases collected by Louis XIV, diamond and gem-studded snuff boxes, and Marie Antoinetteʼs private collection of precious gold-mounted objects. Join us to see what it is like to live like royalty!
This docent lecture and slide show introduces the exhibit, Royal Treasures from the Louvre: Louis XIV to Marie Antoinette, which will be at the Legion of Honor from November 17, 2012 until March 17, 2013.
