Please need advice for drawing the interior of an early 1700s ballet room.
like a place where nobles during Louis XIV's reign would practice

I think you should start with a few architecture and art history books. They tend to have extensive chapters on the Rococo and Enlightenment periods that are full of photographs and illustrations.

thx for the advice
hmm, could they have used a full sheet of mirror for practicing
back then?

I do believe full sheets of mirrors were available, however - at a hefty price. But if you're planning on doing something that is from the Palace at Varsailles, I don't really think you have much to worry about.
