Louis Janmot: The poem of the soul

Louis Janmot: The poem of the soul

September 12, 2023 January 7, 2024 Exhibition has ended
Janmot, painter of the soul, was a very singular artist in his time, but his work echoes that of many other artists, such as William Blake, Philipp Otto Runge and Francisco de Goya before him, his contemporaries the Pre-Raphaelites and, later, the Symbolists, in particular Odilon Redon, who was in contact with him. The exhibition places The Poem of the Soul and its author at the crossroads of literary, religious, philosophical and artistic references, influences and trends.

Maurice Denis. Dreamed happiness - Exhibition catalogue

EK397545
  • € 25
FRENCH LANGUAGE

This richly illustrated catalogue offers an opportunity to plunge into the heart of the artist's home, to discover the masterpieces that were painted there and to meet the "Nabi of the beautiful icons": a man who sought to reconcile decorative ambition with the need for a constantly renewed content, linked to his Catholic faith, to the description of modern life or to a very personal iconography.
This book thus provides a wonderful introduction to an indispensable painter and accompanies a triple anniversary: the 40th anniversary of the Musée départemental Maurice Denis, the reopening of this museum after 2 years of work and the 150th birthday of the painter!
