The Astronomer

Johannes VERMEER

The 17th century is the age of scientific revolution. The astronomer studies a celestial globe and there is an astrolabe, possibly of Persian origin, on the table. The man wears a dressing gown similar to a kimono. The Netherlands played a central role in international trade, which explains how Vermeer would have had access to such items.

About the Musée du Louvre

Formerly a royal palace, the Louvre has embraced the history of France for eight centuries. Open to the public since 1793, the Louvre collections are among the finest in the world, encompassing several thousands of years and spread across a large territory from America to the confines of Asia. Divided among nine departments, the collections feature works admired throughout the globe, including the Mona Lisa, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, and the Venus de Milo.

After the French Revolution, the Louvre was created as a place where artists could admire the great masters and look for inspiration. Even today, the Louvre remains a place of inspiration for the greatest contemporary creators, architects, painters, sculptors, dancers, and musicians.
