Elegant double stairway - Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte (Maincy/FR)
Elegant double stairways. An original feature is the so-called “rotunda” lounge - from the Italian rotonda - a unique piece. The whole, formed by the vestibule and this large space, forms like a central span. This arrangement, also known as a "lantern", allows the visitor to have a view through the axis of the main courtyard-porch-vestibule-alley in perspective of the gardens located on the other side, around which revolve two parts autonomous each with a staircase.
