In 2014, Claire Adelfang was invited by the Château de Versailles to contribute a series of photographs for the publication Les Carnets de Versailles (n°7, April-September 2015). This collaboration marked the beginning of a deep exploration of the estate, focusing specifically on the Hameau de la Reine before and during its restoration.
Claire’s work uniquely captures the concept of intimacy associated with the Hameau de la Reine, offering a rare glimpse into Marie-Antoinette’s private quarters. By approaching the site as a repository of personal stories rather than merely historical artifacts, Claire’s photographs reveal a world behind closed doors, showcasing the interiors hidden from public view.
