In 1639, a group of gentlemen decided to leave the world and retire to a sort of hermitage, initially at the gates of the Port-Royal Abbey in Paris.

In the footsteps of those who would later be called the "Solitaries" of Port-Royal, a selection of around fifty drawings and engravings offers a journey through the dreamlike deserts of the 17th century: dark forests, places of inner renewal or gardens of Paradise.

Exhibition at the Port-Royal des Champs National Museum from April 7 to July 4, 2022.
