"Rococo and Revolution: Eighteenth-Century French Drawings" Exhibition
The Morgan Library & Museum
This event has ended.
The exhibition features more than eighty exceptional drawings almost exclusively from the Morgan's renowned holdings. The efflorescence of the ancien régime and its eventual downfall provide the backdrop to a century of remarkable artistic vitality and variety that subtly chronicles the many changes taking place in eighteenth-century France.
