Description

Antique Etching of French Chateau Rochefoucauld by Eugène Sadoux c1860
Presented matted and framed with archival material.

The history of the castle is deeply connected to the history of the family of La Rochefoucauld, which itself, fits into, century after century, the political life of its time. The castle of La Rochefoucauld gives a remarkable illustration of the interweaving of politics and architecture through the life of a family which has owned the castle without interruption since Fucaldus laid the first fortification around 980. With the history of the family of La Rochefoucauld, the use of architecture aiming at political and social means finds one of its most spectacular expression.
