French Castle, "Laiterie de La Reine", ("Queen's Dairy"), in Shellfish Cottage, Château de Rambouillet, France, built in the 18th century for Marie Therese Louise di Savoia Carignano, Princesse de Lamballe, 1749-92 French, friend and favourite of Queen Marie Antoinette. "In 1783, the château became the private property of king Louis XVI, who bought it from his cousin the duc de Penthièvre as an extension of his hunting grounds.[2] Queen Marie-Antoinette, who accompanied her husband on a visit in November 1783, is said to have exclaimed: "Comment pourrais-je vivre dans cette gothique crapaudière!" (How could I live in such a gothic toadhouse!) However, to induce his wife to like his new acquisition, Louis XVI commissioned in great secret the construction of the renowned Laiterie de la Reine, (the Queen's dairy) ,[3] where the buckets were of Sèvres porcelain, painted and grained to imitate wood, and the presiding nymph was a marble Amalthea, with the goat that nurtured Jupiter, sculpted by Pierre Julien. A little salon was attached to the dairy itself, with chairs supplied by Georges Jacob in 1787 that had straight, tapering stop-fluted legs[4]" (Wikipedia)
