Summaries

Follows the life at the Palace of Versailles, home to the three kings Louis (XIV, XV and XVI), their lovers and their queens: 'Louis XIV, The Dream of a King', 'Louis XV, The Palace of Pleasure', and 'Louis XVI, Countdown to Revolution'.

Symbol of France's glory, Versailles is probably the most splendid royal palace in Europe. From 1643 to 1792, it was the stage on which the most glorious period of the French Monarchy played out, until the darkest days, at the fall of the Bourbon dynasty. This 3-part collection offers a sensitive and endearing portrait of the monarchs and recreates their life, loves and political willpower.—ZED
