Review of French Periods

I first took a look at Samantha's blog, and she mainly focused on different interior design elements that stemmed from the French Rococo period.  Having it also be one of my favorite periods that we have studied as well, I appreciated her more extensive research approach to the time period.  Her modern day examples of the Rococo period were also great examples of such representation.

Next, I viewed Lindsay's blog in the French Baroque styles.  Knowing that she has visited the Palace of Versailles, I was eager to see what information she had to offer first hand.  She explained the structure of the palace itself, but also went into some interesting detail about the Hall of Mirrors and the gardens surrounding.   Her modern day examples of the Baroque period were very tasteful and depicted the modern simplicity of the very intricate and dramatic look of this time period.
