| Versailles on Paper – Past and Present | Paintings |
| Louis le Grand, painted by Hyacinthe Rigaud in 1701 and engraved by Pierre Drevet in 1714. | http://rbsc.princeton.edu/versailles/item/837 |
| The original painting, which used to hang in the Salon d'Apollon (Throne Room) in Versailles, is now in the Louvre. | |
| A replica, also signed by Rigaud, can be seen in Versailles. | |
| Edelinck's engraving (in reverse) of Le Brun's Tent of Darius shows the original borders of the painting, before it was cut down for installation in Versailles. | http://rbsc.princeton.edu/versailles/item/924 |
| After spending some time in the Louvre, Le Brun's painting returned to Versailles in 1934 and now hangs again in the Salon de Mars. | |
| A copy of Le Brun's painting, executed in 1665 by Henri Testelin, is currently used to decorate the ceiling of the Antichambre du Grand Couvert (part of the Queen's Suite). | |
| Chasteau's 1680 engraving of Poussin's La Manne reproduces the painting in reverse. | http://rbsc.princeton.edu/versailles/item/891 |
| Like many other famous paintings that were once in Versailles, this work is now in the Louvre. | |
