Travel Poster France Lorraine Chateau des Ducs
Description
Original vintage travel poster promoting destination of Lorraine, Chateau des Ducs a Luneville in France. The Chateau de Luneville which had belonged to the Dukes of Lorraine since the thirteenth century, was rebuilt as “the Versailles of Lorraine” by Duke Leopold from 1703 to 1723, from designs of Pierre Bourdict and Nicolas Dorbay and then of the architect Germain Boffrand, whose masterwork it became. It became the home of King Stanis?aw Leszczy?ski, last duke of Lorraine and Bar. Luneville was listed as a Monument historique in 1901 and by successive ordinances; its princely apartments are looked after by the Ministry of Defence while the structure is the responsibility of the Conseil départemental de Meurthe-et-Moselle. On the night of 2 to 3 January 2003, a fire broke out that ravaged the château to the extent that the plaster vault of the chapelle royale collapsed. Passing through the attics, the fire destroyed the roof over much of the structure. The restoration of the building and its decors is under way. Good condition, tears and bumps on margins. Country of issue: France, designer: Unknown, size (cm): 99x62, year of printing: 1950s
