Five centuries of art in the Visitation order

A feeling of curiosity animated and animates still the people who stop in front of the high walls which surround a monastery of the Holy Visitation Marie. To cross the door of fence is exceptional.

It is to penetrate in a world with share, a strange world for some, but which lives with its rules and a well defined timetable. The presentation of some artistic Treasures of the movable inheritance of the Visitation selected among many works deposited by the monasteries will make it possible to approach the topic of art to the Visitation.

The majority were never published. These last by the precision of their history will bring answers to the problems of the researchers (localization, people in bond…)
