Visit-Gothiques-Louvre-Lens-eng

Dear Art Lover,

If you are visiting Lens,  here is a recommendation for a worthwhile visit.

 

LOUVRE-LENS-“GOTHIQUES”

The Louvre-Lens museum is presenting a unique exhibition: “Gothiques”.

It highlights Gothic art, which emerged after the Romanesque period in Île-de-France and Picardy in the 12th century and continued to flourish for several centuries.  In the 19th century, this art form was revived in the Neo-Gothic style.

Today, we refer to it as “Gothic”.

Extremely valuable pieces have been brought together: sculptures, ivories, parchments and miniatures from the most famous museums of medieval art, including the Musée de Cluny in Paris.  They illustrate the “spirit” and “language” of Gothic art.

  1. The permanent collection of the Louvre - Lens underwent a change last year and remains more than worth a visit.
