Let us return to the unfinished business of the history book show that took place inside the Préfecture building. This is the grand staircase that leads to the first floor of the building, the outside of which you can see by clicking here (and there's information about its history on that previous post too). The bust is that of MacMahon (full name Patrice de MacMahon, count of MacMahon, first duke of Magenta), a general, marshall of France and former President of France during the IIIrd Republic.
Retournons à l'intérieur de la préfecture, où ces photos de l'escalier d'apparat ont été prises lors du salon Histoire de Lire. Le buste représente Mac Mahon. VDP vous montrait la façade de la préfecture et vous en contait l'histoire ici.
