This book features the carpets woven by the Savonnerie manufactory and devoted to furnish the palaces of the sovereigns, glorifying their power. For the first time ever the systematic study of this production, often sumptuous, is discussed, illustrating with splendour the evolution of taste from the French Consulate (1799-1804) to the July Monarchy (1830-1848).

Detailed and richly illustrated entries allow to step in the golden age of one of the most brilliant French manufactories.
