	Charles Joseph, Prince de Ligne - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Charles Joseph Fürst von Ligne (or Fürst de Ligne), (1735 – December 13, 1814), soldier and writer, came of a princely family of Hainaut, and was born at Brussels in 1735.
		This war was short and uneventful, and the prince then travelled in England, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and France, devoting himself impartially to the courts, the camps, the salons and the learned assemblies of philosophers and scientists in each country.
		This work, though it deals lightly and cavalierly with the most important subjects (the prince even proposes to found an international academy of the art of war, wherein the reputation of generals could be impartially weighed), is a military classic, and indispensable to the students of the post.

		He must then have attracted a loyal, wealthy clientèle, which allowed him to gain assurance as an architect and a solid reputation; in 1753 he became a member of the première classe of the Académie on the death of Germain Boffrand.
		In Paris, Chevotet worked at the Hôtel de Molé (1741–2), the Hôtel de Béthune-Sully (1756–7), Rue St Dominique, and at Maréchal de Richelieu’s hôtel on the Rue Neuve-St Augustin.
		After the mid-1760s, however, patrons preferred the Neo-classicism of the new generation of architects to Chevotet’s work in the Louis XV style, and his son-in-law, Jean-Baptiste Chaussard, was left to complete his main commissions.
