Experiencing nature
The arts in Prague at the court of Rudolph IIA great patron of the arts and sciences, Emperor Rudolf II (1552-1612) was one of Europe’s most enthusiastic rulers for the study of nature. He called to his court scientists from all over Europe, who worked in close proximity to each other within the castle walls, turning Pr ague into a veritable laboratory, a place for experimentation, in a climate of intellectual and religious tolerance.The first part of the exhibition presents this convergence of scientific and artistic views of nature, which was particularly sensitive at the Prague court.The second part of the exhibition will show how this visual curiosity, shared by scientists and artists, contributed to the renewal of artistic creation in Prague.Venue: Musée du LouvreDate: until June 30, 2025Price: €22Address: 75001 ParisTransport: line 1 and 7 station Palais / Royal Musée du Louvre
