The Latone Basin II, Versailles, France: A Picturesque and Nostalgic View from the 19th Century This enchanting image captures the beauty and serenity of the Latone Basin in Versailles, France during the late 19th century. The Latone Basin, also known as the Bassin de Latone, is a scenic water feature located in the Domaine de Versailles, the vast royal estate of the French monarchy. The photograph, dating between approximately 1890 and 1900, is a coloured print produced using the photochrom process. This technique involved the application of multiple layers of color to photographs, resulting in vibrant and detailed images that evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder. In this view, we see the Latone Basin as it appeared over a century ago. The crystal-clear water reflects the surrounding greenery, and the ornate fountain at the center of the basin is in full operation, sending jets of water high into the air. The trees lining the banks are in full bloom, casting dappled shadows on the water's surface. The Latone Basin was a popular destination for visitors to Versailles, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when leisurely strolls through gardens and picnics by the water were the height of sophistication and pleasure. Today, the Basin remains a beloved attraction, a testament to the enduring beauty and charm of Versailles and its rich history.
