Bedroom of the Queen Mother Anne of Austria

I wasn’t wrong when I thought I knew what to expect from the Chateau de Fontainebleau. It is basically a string of beautiful rooms one after the other. I have seen this in the Palace of Versailles and they are not that different. Already my eyes were glazing over from the seemingly countless parade of amazing rooms which are on display here. If you are building your own house, you might want to take some notes here, that is if you want your rooms to be over the top. The palace is actually composed of several apartments. An apartment of course would contains a sitting room, bedroom and maybe perhaps a study. This is no different from the apartments that were built here.

The designs of the rooms at the palace vary quite a lot. Sometimes you would have rather simple rooms at least by royal standards then you would have astoundingly ornate rooms which would let you think that someone very important would be using the room. One of the rooms that I distinctly remember if the bedroom of the queen mother Anne of Austria. It seems like every single inch of the room was decorated including the ceiling. The bed itself is the center of the bedroom and it is just as lavishly decorated. The lighting here gives a more dramatic effect to the room but that let me to wonder just how bright or dark this room can get.
