A Science visit...

Today we went to The Science Museum in London to see their exhibition Versailles: Science and SplendourThe exhibition covered the three kings who made significant improvements to the Palace of Versailles which was originally a hunting lodge before Louis XIV transformed it into a magnificent royal palace. It became the centre of the French monarchy

Now that's a magna exposition!
But how interesting! And there were some clever ladies back then.

Fun fact: Peyronie first described the condition that now bears his name. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peyronie%27s_disease

Amazing exhibit with so many fascinating details!

I love that they got so excited about a pineapple grown in their hothouse and had a painting made of it.

I'm so glad we went to the exhibition - it was much larger and more interesting than I thought it would be.
