The kings’ marble. International symposium, 22-24 May 2003, château de Versailles
Edited by Julien Pascal

Marble is one of the modern era’s least studied materials. This conference brought together specialists from different backgrounds, approaching the topic by the sites of extraction, research, the use of different types, techniques, transport, commerce, metiers, exchanges, and even the diverse uses of marble in royal residences, both in France and other European countries in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. 
In collaboration with Aix-Marseille Université.

Read the symposium's programme on the Centre de Recherche du Château de Versailles website.

The conference papers were published in April 2013 by the Publications de l’université de Provence, edited by Pascal Julien. They were republished in the Bulletin du Centre de recherche du château de Versailles in January 2016.

Order the book from the Presses Universitaires d'Aix-Marseille (PUAM) website.
