Sanssouci details
While summertime 'downtime' (obviously) continues on this blog I thought I'd share some images my Australian penpal was nice enough to share with me of http://sophiamagnolia.blogspot.com /2008/02/sans-souci.html">Sanssouci.I've blogged about the rococo palace in the past ( http://sophiamagnolia.blogspot.com /2008/02/sans-souci.html">here and http://sophiamagnolia.blogspot.com /2009/12/potsdam.html">here) and it never gets old.
While this style may not interest you the attention to detail cannot fail to impress.
This collection of porcelain on gilded brackets above reminded me of Howard Slatkin's NYC apartment.
Notice the very successful jib door (closed) to the left of the chairs in the guest room above.
The chairs have a very modern looking ikat type fabric. Many of the fabrics and wallpapers were recently replaced by a company in Lyon.
I especially love the blue version. Notice the matching curtains.
Here you see the same fabric in green to match a green guestroom.
The marquetry work in this small cabinet is amazing. These side chairs sport a more expected silk damask.
My favorite room at Sanssoci, as I've said in previous posts, is surely the Voltaire guest room which he inhabited for a time.
The polychromed boiserie are so fun and cheerful.
Birds and fruits sit next to monkeys and parrots - could it be more whimsical?
Notice the very modern looking grotto-esque icicles at the top of the mirror.
The parrots almost look entirely free standing on their brackets.
The wallpapers are also a riot of pattern and color.
Notice the intriguing electrical switch below which blends right into the paper. Of course in the 18th century they wouldn't have had any switches so it's nice to hide them.
Again with the modern fabrics, doesn't this fabric below remind you of something from the 1950s?
I hope you enjoy these delicious detail shots of http://sophiamagnolia.blogspot.com /2008/02/sans-souci.html">Sanssoci Palace!
