Oudry, Hunting Painter

Château de Fontainebleau

Exhibition Design 2024

In autumn 2024, the Château de Fontainebleau highlights the work of Jean-Baptiste Oudry, famous for his depictions of King Louis XV’s hunts and his animal portraits. Paintings, editions, porcelain pieces, drawings, clothes and tapestries will plunge the visitors into the world of hunting, the king’s favourite activity, which he wanted
to capture by commissioning a series of tapestries. For the first time, this exhibition presents side
by side Oudry’s original cartoons, four of which have recently been restored, and the preparatory drawings and tapestries for which they served
as models.
