" A Day With Marie Antoinette by Hélène Delalex is a beautifully crafted, intimate look at the life and legend of Marie Antoinette as told through the objects, places and people that defined her story: the furniture, paintings, etchings, lavish rooms and gardens of Versailles where she spent most of her ultimately tragic life are highlighted in this concise, charming overview of Marie Antoinette." - VIVE LA QUEEN BLOG " Hélène Delalex follows the breathless and unsettling pace of change set by Marie Antoinette at Versailles , visiting the sumptuous palace interiors that are imbued with her memory, such as the Gilded Cabinet or the Cabinet de la Méridienne, and the Queen's Hamlet, still so strongly marked by her presence and determination to break with the conventions of court life. Until that fateful day in October 1789, when she was forced to flee the palace of Versailles, which will always embody the ambivalences of her spirit." - WOMEN'S WEAR DAILY, " A Day With Marie Antoinette by Hlne Delalex is a beautifully crafted, intimate look at the life and legend of Marie Antoinette as told through the objects, places and people that defined her story: the furniture, paintings, etchings, lavish rooms and gardens of Versailles where she spent most of her ultimately tragic life are highlighted in this concise, charming overview of Marie Antoinette." - VIVE LA QUEEN BLOG " Hlne Delalex follows the breathless and unsettling pace of change set by Marie Antoinette at Versailles , visiting the sumptuous palace interiors that are imbued with her memory, such as the Gilded Cabinet or the Cabinet de la Mridienne, and the Queen's Hamlet, still so strongly marked by her presence and determination to break with the conventions of court life.
