Inside the French Embassy #1

During the "Day of the Open Memorials" last September I managed to finally visit the French Embassy. The Art Nouveau building was designed by Georges Chedanne; Tony Selmersheim was responsible for the interior decoration which was created by the most renowned French and Austrian artists and craftspeople of the time. Let's start our tour with the "Salon doré".

  1. Magnificent. Very much like our Doors Open concept. If the French embassy here is on the list, I'll have to figure out a time to visit.

  2. Hmmmm. . .no French embassy here in Walla Walla. Or any other embassy for that matter. So I guess I'll have to vicariously enjoy your tour. Merci!
