Transcript

Muzeul Naţional al Evului Mediu, cunoscut sub numele de Muzeul Cluny datorită frumosului palat în care a fost înfiinţat în anul 1843, găzduieşte o splendidă colecţie de artă medievală, de la antichităţi galo-romane până în secolul XV.

Cele 21 de capete din piatră, mutilate, au aparţinut regilor Iudeii şi Israelului, din galeria regilor de pe faţada de vest a Catedralei Notre-Dame.

În timpul Revoluţiei statuile au fost decapitate, gloata crezând că este vorba de regii Franţei

Cinci dintre cele şase tapiserii din Ţările de Jos Doamna cu Inorogul (la Dame à la licorne) sunt alegorii care ilustrează plăcerile simţurilor iar cea de a şasea numită “à mon seul désir” simbolizează renunţarea la plăcerile celor cinci simţuri.
