FRENCH VERSION
From February 18 to July 5, 2026, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs invites us to dive into the heart of the intimacy of an aristocratic 18th century house, thanks to an immersive exhibition entitled «A Day in the Eighteenth Century. Chronicle of a Parisian Townhouse».
The catalogue of the exhibition resumes the course. After an essay setting the scene of this particular day follow one another 180 scientific leaflets nourished, each part of the exhibition being introduced by an extract of a literary work of the eighteenth century. From the morning toilet to the evening games in elegant company, through the magnificence of a French dinner, the sweet chords of a music concert in the living room or the pleasures of conversation during a walk in the garden, the book becomes the guide of a journey through time.
An iconography composed of 250 illustrations accompanies these notices.
