Visit of the King of the French to Queen Victoria - The King's Closet, Windsor Castle, 1844. Louis Philippe, King of France, was a guest of the Queen. 'Of all the rooms devoted to the use of the King, this was, perhaps, the most comfortable, but yet the most gorgeous, in its decorations. It is of small size, and consequently was not overloaded with furniture - a rich cabinet, a sofa, three or four chairs and a pillar table, being the only large articles it contained. The prevalent colour of the room was crimson, the carpet, window-hangings, walls, &c., being of varied tints of that most regal colour....'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
