EDITORS COMMENTS
The Elysee Palace in Paris, a historic residence that has served as the official seat of the French presidency since 1871, is home to numerous elegant and ornate rooms that reflect the rich history of France. One such room is the Salon Murat, named after Joachim Murat, the Grand Duke of Berg and Napoleon Bonaparte's brother-in-law and marshal. This stunning image, captured in 1913, showcases the Salon Murat in all its grandeur. At the heart of the room is a magnificent painting by Carle Vernet, titled "Residence of Prince Murat, Grand Duke of Berg." The painting depicts the opulent interior of the prince's residence in Naples, complete with ornate furnishings, grand columns, and intricate details. The painting adds an air of regality and sophistication to the Salon Murat, transporting viewers back in time to the Napoleonic era. The Salon Murat is adorned with intricately designed wallpaper, gold accents, and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. The room's decor is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the French monarchy during the 19th century. The room's furniture, including the ornate fireplace and gilded mirrors, are all carefully placed to enhance the overall effect of the space. The Salon Murat is just one of the many treasures hidden within the walls of the Elysee Palace. A visit to this room offers a glimpse into France's rich history and the opulent lifestyle of its monarchs and nobility. The painting by Carle Vernet serves as a reminder of the close ties between France and Italy during the Napoleonic era, and the enduring influence of classical art and design on French culture.
