They were everywhere."2) "(Versailles) is a place where there were many pets that were inside the palace, who lived with members of the royal family and courtiers, such as dogs, cats, parrots and monkeys. Therefore, it can be said that it was a place where animals lived like kings.

These incredible Baroque style wigs and dresses and even the small boats are all composed out of paper and glue, and they are all designed to be worn. Artist and clothes designer Asya Kozina crafts the paper creations at her studio near St. Petersburg by hand, and she's gotten quite good at her work. Perhaps even more incredibly, the Ukrainian-born artist creates her master work by using designs that are only found in her head!

Two days before the end of the Paris International Agricultural Show, a convoy of twenty tractors led by activists from the farmers union the Coordination rurale is parked in front of the Palace of Versailles. "We're continuing the movement because we're not being heard (...), we've got band-aids and little envelopes of cash, but that's not going to move things forward," laments Nicolas Bonguay, president of the CR in the Doubs region of eastern France.
