Linking into Tom Rakewell's poor use of money-king louis 14th- blew all of france's cash on thid particular palace, i suppose in a similar way that rakewell did. Both had came into money, with no experience and threw it all away on what they considered "luxuries".Thinking that maybe the story of king louis could have inspired "A Rake's progress"- It's a possibility- it was built in 1624- before "A Rake's Progress"
