More interesting graffiti in Paris by Beausoleil
We were walking from our apartment to the Luxembourg Gardens and on rue Gay-Lussac in front of the Equinix Data Center found this quote by Zola accompanied by an amazing portrait. You have to keep looking around you and up and down to find all the graffiti and it is often worth the search, especially when the taggers leave it alone.

Château de Beauregard Portrait Gallery by Beausoleil
The Château de Beauregard is a Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France and is slightly north of the village of Cellettes. The ruins of a chapel, prior to the fifteenth century, are still visible in the park and have stone carvings of the shell of the pilgrims going to Saint Jacques de Compostela in Spain. The most impressive part of the castle is the Gallery of Portraits where the walls are decorated with 327 portraits of famous people who lived between 1328 (date of the beginning of the reign of Philippe VI of France) and 1643 (death of Louis XIII). The floor is decorated with 5500 Delft tiles so you can look up or down and be impressed. The ceiling is also brilliantly decorated with the use of lapis lazuli paint for the blue. At the time it was done, the lapis lazuli cost more than gold so it is a very expensive ceiling. The gardens are extensive and themed. The outstanding feature (to us) was the 14th century chapel which was located on the route of St Jacques de Compostela. On the side you will find carved stone shells of Saint Jacques. The chapel is, unfortunately, in ruins. Inside, two plaques commemorate Count Alain du Pavillon and one of his sons.

Château de Beauregard Cabinet of the Bells (Cabinet des Grelots) by Beausoleil
Created by Francesco Scibec de Carpi, famous cabinetmaker of King Henry II, it owes its name to the bell, escutcheon of the Thier family, which is used as a motif of ornamentation. The Château de Beauregard is a Renaissance castle in the Loire Valley of France and is slightly north of the village of Cellettes. The ruins of a chapel, prior to the fifteenth century, are still visible in the park and have stone carvings of the shell of the pilgrims going to Saint Jacques de Compostela in Spain.
