Het Paleis van het Louvre en standbeeld van Louis XIV, Parijs. Is the typo in the 25th amendment significant?

Most people, if they're lucky enough to get that close — in an exclusive showing, without having to fight crowds — would be awestruck. King Louis was under arrest. They'd take every advantage of the moment. I did some casual searches and it seems that most of sources mention "Paris", a few "the royal palace" (but not "Palais-Royal" which, translated word for word means "Palace-Royal" and is actually the name of a building), some others "Palais-Royal", and then some more the Louvre (surprisingly not that many sources, at least in the ones I found) which was the official place of stay for the royal family at the time.
#GodSaveTheQueen. Although Louvre was situated in the capital and considered to be the royal palace, Louis didn't like it and always tried to move from it. This selection serves to remind us that Louis XIV was also a great patron of the arts. year = year - 100; Artists in the 17th century had the same problem artists have today — art doesn't pay very well — so having free lodging in exchange for beautifying Paris was a pretty good deal. They were kept under lock and key in Tuilleries Palace (at the time part of the Louvre complex) for more than a year. This was great for the artists but not so great for the palace itself, because the artists in residence acted like fraternity brothers and failed to take good care of the property.
