Versailles, the night of Patrick Hourcade
The Palace of Versailles is exhibited at the Petit Trianon.
With unusual poetry and sweetness.
In 25 photographs in intense black which forces the eyes to widen, Patrick Hourcade invites the solitary walker into the contemplation and reverie of his “Versailles Night”.
Surreal glow to follow through the keyhole of
La Chapelle Royale,
which finds its sacred mystery in this lightly touched semi-darkness.
The Sea Monster

Bacchus
and
Neptune
, sea god surrounded by nymphs, impose their athletic silhouette in the black and silent park, invaded during the day by hordes of tourists (formerly).
