Traveling Tuesdays

Here's a photo from the time BD—before digital.
It's part of Marie Antoinette's Petite Hameau at

handmaidens playing at being "rustics" here?

    It sounds so harmless nowadays, kings playing farmers!

    I can see it! I imagine the birds would have been very plump from the leftover cake crumbs.

    It looks like a little doll house. I could be happy there!

    I was always so fascinated by details of the court at Versailles, especially M.A.'s hamlet life.
