我拍摄了一座建于1901年的废弃豪华城堡

The history of the castle Laurens is incredible in so many ways that we could assume it is straight from the imagination of someone like Alexandre Dumas.

劳伦斯城堡的历史在很多方面都是令人难以置信的，我们可以认为这是出自大仲马等人的想象。

The owner of this castle, Emmanuel Laurens, was born in 1873. A son of a very wealthy family, he was very interested in traveling. While he was wandering all over the world, he inherited a huge fortune from a remote cousin and his father who died the same year. After that, he was left with a lot of fortune at the age of only twenty-four years old. He also inherited a site in the French city of Agdes.

这座城堡的主人伊曼纽尔·劳伦斯出生于1873年。作为一个富裕家庭的儿子，他对旅行很感兴趣。在他周游世界的过程中，他从一个远房表亲和同年去世的父亲那里继承了一大笔财产。在那之后，他在24岁的时候就留下了一大笔财富。他还继承了法国阿格迪斯城的一处遗址。

Despite his complete ignorance of the job as an architect, he decided to draw himself the plans of the future villa he wanted to build on his inherited site, taking a lot of inspiration from the newly found trend of “art nouveau” that was featured in Vogue at the time.

尽管他对建筑师的工作一无所知，但他还是决定在继承的地盘上为自己绘制未来的别墅规划，并从当时的《时尚》杂志上新发现的“新艺术”潮流中获得了很多灵感。

He wished for his castle to become a masterpiece, a piece of art on its own where the architecture, scenery, furniture and the art of living were all put together into one grand picture.

他希望他的城堡能成为一件杰作，一件独立的艺术品，把建筑、风景、家具和生活艺术都融合在一起，形成一幅宏伟的图画。

Each room is linked to one of his journeys abroad (Japanese hall, Italian patio, Moorish entrance, etc). Artists dedicated to the “Art Nouveau” trend, like the painter Eugène Dufour, the decorator Léon Cauvy, and the designer Eugène Simas, were in charge of decorating and adorning this villa.

每个房间都与他在国外旅行的一个房间相连(日本大厅，意大利露台，摩尔式的入口，等等)。致力于“新艺术”潮流的艺术家们，比如画家尤金杜福、装潢师利昂科维和设计师尤金西马斯，负责这栋别墅的装潢和装饰。
