Above: Two paintings in the Caroline Room, by Jean-Baptiste Greuze, (1725-1805) ... Le Tendre Désir (left) and Jeune Garçon.
1 shows the harp in La Salon de Musique.
2 shows the ornate ceiling going to La Chapelle.
3 to 10 Hearts of the Princes of Condé chapel, named because the hearts of the Condés have been placed in this chapel (separate from their bodies).
The last heart belongs to the eldest son of the Duke of Aumale, Louis of Orleans, Prince of Condé, who died at just twenty-one years of age in 1866.
The chapel features the monument returned to the Condés in 1816 and the Duke of Aumale placing it in the chapel in 1885 (#3).
Also, there are bronze statues by Joseph Sarrazin from 1648 (#4 and #5), stained glass (#6-#8) and wall paintings (#9 and #10).
