Before the royal court moved to Versailles, this castle served as a primary residence for the Kings of France and was the birthplace of Louis XIV. The image showcases the unique Renaissance architecture commissioned by Francois I, blending stone and brickwork. In the foreground, the manicured gardens and an ornate stone urn highlight the grand landscape design of Andre Le Notre. By the time of this image, the chateau had become home to the National Museum of Archaeology, a role it still serves today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Divided Back (1905-1910)\u003cbr\u003eCity: Saint-Germain-en-Laye\u003cbr\u003eState or Region: Yvelines (formerly Seine-et-Oise)\u003cbr\u003eCountry: France\u003cbr\u003eTopic: Royal Residences, French Renaissance Architecture, Formal Gardens, Historic Castles\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Uncirculated\u003cbr\u003ePostage: Unposted; no postmark or stamp\u003cbr\u003eAddress Side: divided back\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Horizontal (Landscape)\u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ Photographer: A.P.\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Cormault et Papeghin, Paris\u003cbr\u003ePrinter: Cormault et Papeghin\u003cbr\u003ePrint Type: Collotype\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe production date is narrowed to 1905-1910 based on the publisher's partnership history and the divided back layout.
