The furniture and tapestries in this room were gifts to Joseph II from his brother-in-law, the French king Louis XVI, who had married Maria Theresa's youngest daughter, Marie Antoinette. They were both executed during the French Revolution and most of their possessions were auctioned off. These tapestries are therefore particularly valuable in historical terms.
