Samenvatting
The Louvre in Paris was the prototypical public art museum. Together with the National Gallery in London, it stands as monument to the new bourgois state as it was emerging in the age of democratic revolutions. Why were they so politically attractive and how did they differ from older displays of art? What was and is there ideological usefulness to modern states? Description of the transition from private royal collections to public art museums, the differences it caused in display and decoration. |
