DISCOVERING THE CHÂTEAU DE VILLANDRY

The moat bedroom

Ann Coleman, Joachim Carvallo’s wife, chose this room, which was updated in the 18th century. The soft green panelling; the white silk embellished with colourful flowers and birds that evoke the gardens and music; the portraits of Ann Coleman and two of the couple’s six children painted by their friend, the artist Milcendeau; and the softness of the alcove all allude to femininity and motherhood.

The moat room was occupied by Ann Coleman, wife of Joachim Carvallo.

The moat room combines pink and green tones.

The tapestry of the moat chamber is of great refinement.
