Perhaps one of the most storied palaces in the world, the Château de Versailles possesses an almost mythical charm. Featuring texts by Catherine Pégard, president of the Château de Versailles, with additional input from Mathieu da Vinha, scientific director of the Château de Versailles Research Center, Assouline's Versailles: From Louis XIV to Jeff Koons delves into the colorful history of Versailles and the role the site has played in a number of important historical, social, and cultural milestones. Across 234 pages and 200 illustrations, everything from construction under Louis XIV to esteemed guests that include Mozart, the Kennedys and Queen Victoria is explored, with no part of the palace's history left uncovered. More modern observations include an overview of contemporary artists who have exhibited at Versailles, beginning with Jeff Koons in 2008, for a fully rounded and extensive view of the palace's history.
