During the reign of Louis XIV, artists experienced an undoubted moment of glory and even now contribute to the enduring splendour of the so-called classic century. But what were their real working conditions? As the protégés of wealthy sponsors and of the king himself, what were the rules and conditions to which they had to submit?
This workshop will let you in to the secret of artistic creation in the “Grand siècle” and will touch on the work of artists be they musicians, goldsmiths, and painters, architects, and chefs de cuisine, the organisers of great festivities, actors or writers. With Elisabeth Le Doze
