a-l-ancien-regime:

Hôtel de la Marine, townhouse in Paris (also known as the hôtel du Garde-Meuble)  was built between 1757 and 1774. The magnificent interior decor by Jacques Gondouin, inspired by Piranesi, is an important step forward in 18th century taste, but was profoundly distorted by changes under the Second French Empire, although the grands salons d’apparat and the Galerie Dorée still maintain some of the original elements.
