Palais des Tuileries
James Gardner’s Book is one of my favorite reference materials
The Louvre: The Many Lives of the World’s Most Famous Museum
This publication and audio books is the favorite of this Gallophile
It covers the history, the ups and downs behind the world’s largest art museum
Our latest discovery discoery is the Paais de Tuilleries
We know the Tuilleries as the Gardens west of Le Louvre
But it was one of the main building in the Louvre Complex and many image and artifacts survive
