Marie-Antoinette (BIBLIOTHECA PAEDIATRICA REF KARGER)

Great book

Excelente libro, magníficas ilustraciones aunque muy breve, esperaba algo más de texto. Aún así es una edición hermosa

Sono contenta, il libro è oltre le mie aspettative, è arrivato in perfetto stato, foto bellissime. Lo consiglio vivamente agli appassionati di arte

Beautiful and very interesting book but theprice is too high for one "made in China". (Regret that I have helped the Chinese economy again, howbeit unknowingly.) A nice-to-have for anybody interested in Marie-Antoinette.

I love reading about 18th century France, Marie Antoinette, Versailles, and the French Revolution. So I own a lot of books on this turbulent yet opulent era. This biography of Marie Antoinette is amazing and one of my favorite books (along with the books A Day with Marie Antoinette and A Day at Versailles). This book (coffee table book size) is filled, every page, with glorious photos of artwork, architecture, interior decor, fashions, jewelry, silver, upholstery, bed linens, carriages, toilette sets, porcelain dinner services, candelabra, statuary, furniture, snuff boxes, tea sets, and hairstyles of the opulent, beautiful world of Marie Antoinette and 18th century courtiers. The text gives a well written, informative biography of Marie's life, but it's the outstanding illustrations and photos that really set this book apart from other, more 'text driven' biographies of Marie. Literally every page of the book has full color photos and pictures. Absolutely stunning book. If you are interested in the Versailles era and the world of Marie Antoinette, you will love this book.

I enjoyed the book; it was a quick read, in less than 24 hours. It's not an in depth book obviously but it's great to be able to visualize where certain events occurred while reading about them. Well done and terrific photos.
