Le Grand Tour et l'Académie de France à Rome
LG
Emilie Beck-SaielloJean-Noël Bret1 editions

This volume brings together the contributions of eleven historians and art historians who have been interested in the question of mobility through the study of two distinct cultural phenomena, the Grand Tour and artists' journeys. Rome, "crossroads of Europe" and main destination for travelers and artists is also the seat since 1666, the Academy of France. It is a place of formation and therefore of permanence, but it nevertheless contributes to the dynamics of the flows and exchanges that characterize Roman cultural and artistic life. To study the history of the Académie de France at the time of the Grand Tour is to place the institution in a Roman and European geography; it is to show its permeability to the forms and ideas that are elaborated in the great Roman "workshop", but also the international influence of the Palais Mancini.--Translation of page 4 of cover by Hermann.
