Title: Carrousel
Post by: Richard on March 22, 2025, 06:39:56 AM

Following Martin Cook's article in the Journal No. 148, the end of the 1662 carrousel's depiction in flat figures will be completed with the last quadrille, the Persians. Now the molds are under engraving, but already here are the first two figures : the King of the Persians (Monsieur, brother of Louis the 14 th) and the Field Marshal.Richard

At the Epopées stand of the WME 2025, we presented the Carrousel's latest quadrille, the Persians.
Our British friends stopped by and had the chance to chat with Davide Chiarabella.

Thanks Jean-Paul for the answer. It saves me from making one, as I'm lazy (just a joke).
