Praxiteles

 
Click here to discover the Exhibition Web site

Praxiteles was the first Greek sculptor who dared create representations of the female nude. He worked in the 4th century B.C. and remains one of the most famous artists of Antiquity.

The exhibition is made possible by F. Marc de Lacharrière (Fimalac).

The exhibition catalogue has been realized thanks to the generous support of the J.F. Costopoulos Foundation.

The didactic panels of the Praxitèle exhibition have been translated in Greek thanks to the generous support of the Lambrakis Foundation.

Curator(s) : Alain Pasquier et Jean-Luc Martinez, département des Antiquités grecques, étrusques et romaines du musée du Louvre.
