Description Jean Philippe Rameau / W. Christie - Tristes Apprêts, Pâles Flambeaux.mp3

This picture melts my heart. Every Single Time. It captures perfectly the longing, the nostalgia about Versailles.

Made by me. All rights reserved.

Tristes apprêts, pâles flambeaux,
Jour plus affreux que les ténèbres
Astres lugubres des tombeaux,
Non, je ne verrai plus que vos clartés funèbres.
Toi, qui vois mon cœur éperdu,
Père du jour, ô soleil, ô mon pére !
Je ne veux plus d'un bien que Castor
Et je renonce à la lumière.

Watching this while listening to "La vie passe" from "Le Roi Soleil" makes me dream of dancing with the courtiers of Louis XIV.

Absolutely haunting Sir. The pale ivory moon hanging above the haunted palace. The spirits awakeing and their whisper rising on the evening air. My dear sir if you use your imagination ,The shadows upon the wall Between the shadows of the urns resemble the shadows of elegantly dressed court members. If you look closely you can imagine towering wigs and full skirts, hands upraised in a elegant gesture. You may have captured the true ghosts of Versailles.
