Topic: Louveciennes, France


In the News (Sun 27 Dec 09)

  
  Louveciennes
The town of Louveciennes holds precedence over the restoration of its Chateau of Madame DuBarry, the palatial love nest of the Aristocratic courtesan bought privately by a Japanese investor who then proceeded to strip the interior of its elegant parquet floors, gilded cornices and mouldings, chandeliers, mirrors, mantle pieces and marquetry for auction and exportation.
This exploitation of a classified national treasure shocked Louveciennes to seek legal action to seize public possession of the Chateau with intervention at the level of the Ministry of Culture, and undoubtedly deepened feelings of zenophobic caution towards foreign investment in local property.
Ironically there was to be a Poetry Festival this Spring in Louveciennes, the mention of Nin's name on the lips of local admirers and quiet keepers of the flame, of which there are many fond Louveciennois eager to see this little piece of history remembered.

 Louveciennes from "The Chateaux of France"
After 1750, so pervasive was the mood of reform, in reaction against the decadence of life under Louis XV, that one of the major symbols of the new spirit is the little freestanding pavilion at Louveciennes.
The irony is that the structure was commissioned by none other than the Comtesse du Barry, Louis XV's last mistress and the archsymbol of all that contemporaries considered effete and self indulgent in France's ancien regime.
Once completed, the Louveciennes pavilion caused a furor, for clearly the new age had arrived.

Louveciennes is in a lovely setting and we can imagine she enjoyed her last days there.
At five of the morning of the 30th of March 1842, she died in her apartment at No. 29 Rue St. Lazare, in her eighty-seventh year; and was buried according to her wish at Louveciennes, where, in the church, still hangs the picture of "Ste.

 Impressionism - Biography of Alfred SISLEY
British by his birth and his nationality, though he lived in France, he is also in the tradition of Constable, Bonington and Turner.
The franco-prussian war of 1870 will cause the ruin of his family, and Sisley, for the rest of his life, will no longer be a young man of good social standing, but an artist having to live with difficulty of his painting.
Now ruined, he is obliged to definitively leave Paris and Louveciennes in 1874 to settle opposite the Feeding at Marly-le-Roi.

This is a collection of material about Louveciennes, which was home to the American School of Paris between 1959 and 1967.
"The chief interest at Louveciennes is the small freestanding pleasure pavilion commissioned in the late 18th century by Mme du Barry, Louis XV's last mistress.
Devoid of Rococo classicism's curvilinear graces and soft, decorative transitions, the Louveciennes pavilion is little more than a crisply articulated, oblong box.

In France, for instance, 22 million bank-card holders have smart cards, and all bank-payment terminals accept smart cards as well as traditional magnetic-stripe ATM or PIN cards.
Proponents expect the cards to also play an increasingly important role in the health-care industry, where the devices can carry basic information and medical data about an individual's prescriptions or history.
According to Nadaradjane Ramatchandirane, Schlumberger's strategic development director for smart cards, the EMV project has far-reaching implications for the worldwide debit-/credit-card business and the smart-card industry in general.
