Chateau Versaille 2: How a Pilgrimage to Chateau Versaille Causes La Danse Automatique





Chateau Versaille's juxtaposition of crowds of tourists from the world-over, beside 17th Century architecture, art, design and pictorial representations of French Royalty, really "struck a chord" with me. Indeed, Chateau Versaille is a work of art and the "Post modern phenomena" of global tourism creates its own aesthetic. Both together made me think of a theatrical performance on a global stage, a "danse automatique", unchoreographed and oblivious to a third juxtapostion of art; the "Postmodern photographer" reflecting on contemporary life and the state of the arts.

Pictorially, my main concerns with this photograph were to exploit the 3D elements of the photo, enhance the light (source and reflections) and to capture some rather strange, dance like movements of the tourists! Hopefully I've acheived this! :-)

Chateau Versaille: Quand est la Puissance? (When is the Power?)




Chateau Versaille: Quand est la Puissance?  (When is the Power?)





Louis 14th and his grand quest for power and influence.... Chateau Versaille (Palace of Versaille) is a complex, ornate and elegant composition, that utilised the talents of artists, architects, designers, gardeners, garden designers, craftsmen and other creatives.

Ironically, Chateau Versaille may draw many more visitors today than during Louis 14th reign (1643-1715) hence the title of my edited interpretation. Visitors come from around the globe, like a pilgrimage; a homage to the acheivements of history. The Chateau's extraordinary display of creative skills appear to mock our computer-aged, simplicity. Perhaps, visitors realise that the grandeur, skill and scale of many historical monuments will not be acheived during our technological age, and this contributes to their enduring appeal.
