<p>The <b>Belvédère du Petit Trianon</b>, or <b>Pavillon du Rocher</b>, is a neoclassical garden built by <a href="/wiki/Richard_Mique" title="Richard Mique">Richard Mique</a> between 1778 and 1781 for the French queen <a href="/wiki/Marie_Antoinette" title="Marie Antoinette">Marie-Antoinette</a> within the <span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">Jardin anglais du Petit Trianon</i></span> on the grounds of the <a href="/wiki/Palace_of_Versailles" title="Palace of Versailles">Château de Versailles</a>. </p><p>A small octagonal pavilion, designed by the Queen's architect, is one of the features of the new garden of the <a href="/wiki/Petit_Trianon" title="Petit Trianon">Petit Trianon</a> and serves as a music salon. It is flanked by an artificial rock from which a waterfall cascades and is surrounded by miniature mountains that form an alpine garden. It is guarded by eight stone <a href="/wiki/Sphinx" title="Sphinx">sphinxes</a> sculpted by Joseph Deschamps. Deschamps was also responsible for decorating the eight facades, whose bas-reliefs allegorize the four seasons and whose pediments are decorated with attributes of hunting and gardening. The interior salon is richly decorated with <a href="/wiki/Arabesque" title="Arabesque">arabesques</a> painted on stucco depicting scenes from nature, a marble floor, and a ceiling by <a href="/wiki/Jean-Jacques_Lagren%C3%A9e" title="Jean-Jacques Lagrenée">Jean-Jacques Lagrenée</a> depicting cherubs in a blue sky. </p><p>Despite enduring two centuries of deterioration and alteration, the Belvédère du Petit Trianon and its rock were restored and meticulously brought back to their ancien régime condition in 2012. This extensive restoration, encompassing the <a href="/wiki/Alpine_garden" title="Alpine garden">Alpine Garden</a>, was a labor of love, restoring the entire structure to its former glory. Now listed as a historic monument, along with the <a href="/wiki/Palace_of_Versailles" title="Palace of Versailles">Château de Versailles</a> and its outbuildings, it is a testament to the dedication and care put into preserving our history.

The Belvédère is the focal point of the landscape composition, attracting attention during celebrations organized by the Queen within the Trianon estate, situated just a few meters from the theater. One of the most notable examples is the subject of a painting by <a href="/wiki/Claude-Louis_Ch%C3%A2telet" title="Claude-Louis Châtelet">Claude-Louis Châtelet</a>, which was presented on the occasion of the visit of her brother Joseph II in August 1781. This event occurred just a few days after the King's brother, Monsieur, was received. The guests were greeted by a rock illuminated and surrounded by transparent figures of piles of stones covered with foliage.
