Versailles - gilded arrival



When one arrives at Versailles your struck by the gilded gates. 
Created for the Sun King the the warm metal is fitting.





Everything gilded even the rooftops. Like a jewel box... can't wait to see what's inside.


Louis IV himself... lovely cameo in a gilded frame


The window hardware... again gold.


Love these gates with the sun motif.
