bridge at versailles


Another old photo (i.e., way before digital).
This little bridge leads the way to Marie
Antoinette's "petit hameau" at Versailles,
where she and her attendants would play
at being milkmaids and shepherdesses.

[See more bridges here, chez Louis la Vache.]

  1. There must've been lots of fish in the water with those kids hanging over this charming bridge...

  2. Sweet little bridge, Alexa. I think that there might have been many frogs to capture the attention of those children!

  3. This is a lovely little bridge in a pretty setting. It reminds me of the bridges in Central Park (of course, the designers of Central Park probably knew of the bridges of Versailles).

  8. The girl with her leg over the side and the the one with the camera are my daughters—who both remained dry that day!
