Description
The Tuileries Palace in Paris was originally built in the mid-16th century, was gradually expanded by numerous monarchs and ultimately destroyed by fire in an 1871 uprising. It had been a Paris residence of many of the French monarchs from Henry IV to Napoleon III and eventually displayed an immense facade nearly 900 feet long, which stretched to the western end of the Louvre. This volume offers an insider's perspective on life at the palace during the Second Empire under Napoleon III.
