1843 B Ring Carre Galleries Glasses Hung Louvre Pictures Salon Visitors
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Louvre Salon exhibition of 1843 with this print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The image captures a moment where visitors are seen straining their necks and squinting through spy-glasses to catch a glimpse of the artwork hung so high in the Salon carre galleries.
In an era where art was revered and admired, it is fascinating to see how patrons went to great lengths just to appreciate the masterpieces on display. The historical significance of this scene is palpable, as it transports us back to a time when art exhibitions were grand events that drew crowds from far and wide.
The sheer height at which these pictures were hung speaks volumes about the reverence with which they were regarded. It is no wonder that some visitors felt compelled to bring spy-glasses in order to fully immerse themselves in the beauty and detail of each piece.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the enduring power of art to captivate and inspire. The Louvre Salon exhibition of 1843 may be long gone, but its legacy lives on through images like these that allow us to glimpse into a bygone era filled with wonder and admiration for artistic mastery.
