Escalier d'Honneur, or staircase of honour, in the centre of the Hotel de la Marine, built 1757-74 by Ange-Jacques Gabriel, 1698-1782, architect to King Louis XV, on the Place de la Concorde, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, France. The banister features the symbol of the Navy, with an anchor and dolphins. The building was made to house the Garde-Meuble de la Couronne, the king's furniture collection, and the apartments of the Intendant of the Garde-Meuble (Pierre-Elisabeth de Fontanieu from 1765, and Marc-Antoine Thierry de Ville d’Avray from 1786). From 1789, the building became the Ministere de la Marine, the navy ministry. It was restored 2017-20 and is listed as a historic monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
