This exhibition has closed

It closed on 23 August 2026. The page stays because an exhibition history is evidence: where a work was shown, and when, is part of its provenance and this archive cites it.

On now at Musee Carnavalet: Fragments of Paris: Jacques Villegle and Urban Art.

Visiting Musee Carnavalet

Letters, portraits and objects tied to 17th-century writer Madame de Sevigne, marking 400 years since her birth and set inside the Hotel Carnavalet, where she lived from 1677 until her death in 1696.

The Iconotheca Letter

One artwork and its story every Tuesday, with the picture: who owned it, what it made, and what closes soon in the exhibition calendar. No promotion, and nothing we cannot cite.

We send one email to confirm the address and keep nothing else. Every letter carries a one-click unsubscribe. How we handle your data.
