How did the Louvre become an extraordinary experimental laboratory in perpetual reconfiguration?

At a time when the universalist claims of Western museums are the subject of debate, historian Pierre Singaravélou goes back in time to understand how the Louvre became, in a little over two centuries, a special case in the history of museums: an extraordinary laboratory of experimentation in perpetual reconfiguration.
