The Musée du Domaine départemental de Sceaux at the Château de Sceaux, close to Paris, has just opened an exhibition dedicated to Allegory in the age of the Baroque. Using loans from private collections and various regional museums, the exhibition will use sources by Cesare Ripa and later translators like Jean Baudoin to help visitors uncover the various representations and meanings employed by artists of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

The exhibition will run until 14th January 2024.
