Big fan of busts. They’re culture and they don’t move! Who might this one be of? Someone important, to be sure.

Made of chocolate?
This bust makes me think of the one that Anna dances with in Frozen, that ends up stuck on top of the cake. It looks like it’s made of chocolate, but I guess that would’ve melted from the heat in this room.
Statue and Bust
There were these little alcoves all around the room with statues. I wish I could remember whether the guide mentioned if the statues were there in the palace’s heyday or not…the alcoves would be a great place to have a tiny modicum of privacy. (Not that that seemed to matter, as the king regularly had visitors in his chambers whilst he was getting dressed, used the chamber pot, or bathed. I remember THAT because I remember thinking “ugh, glad I’m not the king in those times”.
