  • Mmmhhh tu sembles intéressé par "Luxembourg". Clique sur les mots clefs qui te plaisent... et hop ne rate plus rien les concernant. A toi de jouer !

This exhibition by the Libraries and Media Libraries of Metz reveals to the public the extraordinary wealth of the collection gathered by Baron Louis-Numa de Salis, bequeathed to the city of Metz in 1892. It includes medieval charters and manuscripts, engravings by the greatest Lorraine artists (Callot, Leclerc), as well as beautiful incunabula, illustrated books, and archive documents.

The exhibition focuses, after a brief reminder of the legacy context, on describing the practices of the collector and highlighting the research of the learned Messin. It concludes with the most beautiful treasures of the collection, including the illuminations of the Mortifiement de vaine plaisance by Jean Colombe. With exceptional loans from the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the Municipal Archives of Metz, and the Académie nationale de Metz.
