Room known as the Empress’ Bedroom at the Grand Trianon in Versailles. Parade bed (1809) created after the design of Charles Percier (1764-1838) by the cabinetmaker Jacob Desmalter (1770-1841) for the imperial bedroom of Napoleon I at the Tuileries Palace from where it was transported to its current location in 1838. It was also the deathbed of Louis XVIII. This bed has been subject to several modifications. Its large escutcheon was altered several times and the layer was enlarged under Louis-Philippe. Original Empire balustrade (1810) by Pierre-Benoît Marcion (1769-1840). Marie-Louise selected the furniture in this room that remains to this day.
