Salon des Amiraux, one of the Salons d'Honneur remodelled in the 19th century by Navy minister Admiral Mackau, in 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 room was originally used to display furniture but was remodelled with sculpted wooden panelling painted gold by Jeanselme and a series of paintings of French naval admirals. 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
