"En Jeu! Artists and Sport, 1870-1930" at the Musée Marmottan

The greatest artists tell us about their time through the fabulous epic of sport

With over 160 works on loan from the world's leading museums and educational activities, the Musée Marmottant celebrates the history of sport and its representations.
With Antoine Bourdelle, Claude Monet, Gustave Courbet, Alfred Sisley, Auguste Rodin, Toulouse-Lautrec and many more ...
At a time when society was discovering leisure and free time : sport becomes more democratic
Until then, it was the wealthier classes who played sports: nautical or equestrianfightsfencingor matches tennis ..
But at the turn of the century, a revolution took place! Paris hosted the Olympic Games in 1900 and 1924.
Thanks to photography, poster art and newspapers, the spirit of sport gradually spread throughout society: cycling, rugby, gymnastics...
Fascinated by the subject of sports aesthetics, the artists worked on dynamics, lighting and the expression of effort and speed.
