Entre oubli et idées fausses, le château de Saint-Cloud est l'inconnu des grandes demeures royales d'Ile-de-France. Aujourd'hui disparu, il fut trois siècles durant le théâtre d'évènements qui bouleversèrent la vie du pays ; de l'assassinat d'Henri III au 18 Brumaire, de Marie-Antoinette et Mirabeau à la Guerre de 1870, que d'espoirs et que de drames !Lieu de pouvoir, le château de Saint-Cloud fut pourtant une maison de délices lorsque le frère de Louis XIV enchanta cette colline par son goût du faste et de la fête, par ses trouvailles architecturales et décoratives, par sa passion pour le parc et la nature.Cet ouvrage d'ensemble recrée l'aventure d'un château privé devenu résidence royale et impériale, à l'aide d'une vaste richesse de documents d'archives, de mémoires et témoignages et de photographies d'intérieur. Portraits, tableaux, plans, meubles et objets font revivre ce lieu prestigieux froidement anéanti il y a plus de cent ans. C'est ainsi que le lecteur découvrira que si le château de Marly était le caprice d'un roi, Saint-Cloud est l'histoire de France !

Nonsuch in Surrey was Henry VIII's last and most fantastic palace. Begun in 1538, at the start of the 30th year of Henry's reign, the palace was intended as a triumphal celebration of the power and the grandeur of Henry VIII and the Tudor dynasty. The site was chosen for its fine countryside and hunting potential. The palace was ornately decorated with intricate Renaissance designs in carved and gilded slate and plasterwork, with two great octagonal towers, five storeys high at either end. The finds fall into two categories: architectural and domestic. This volume, the second in the series, publishes the domestic finds, including a large amount of complete or reconstructible glass, ceramics (such as tin-glazed wares, stoneware and earthenware), coins and tokens, clay pipes, pewter vessels, objects of iron, bone, ivory and leather, and a wooden pocket sundial.
