Versailles. Where the Sun Rose. Lecture-presentation by I. Tomasheva

Dive into the mysteries and the touching history of the palace that symbolizes the luxury of Louis XIV — the Sun King. In Inna Tomasheva's lecture, you will learn how the monarch's ambitions and childhood trauma transformed into an architectural marvel where every detail is part of a whole universe of power and art. This is an opportunity not just to see Versailles, but to understand how the water in the fountains, etiquette, and even marble tell the story of Europe. The evening will be complemented by live music, a gallery exhibition, and exquisite refreshments, turning an October evening into a true celebration of French art.
