XVth Salon International du Décor Peint Architectural (Architectural Painted Decoration)

The "SALON" is an international exhibition, devoted each year to some hundred decorative painters and muralists from a different country, inspired by the singular purpose of sharing their passion and communicating their profession. This year the XVth show will take place in Versailles.

This is the public's chance to discover a very beautiful exhibition and attend expert demonstrations and lectures. Architectural trompe l’oeil, panoramas, grotesques, grisailles, ornamentation, chinoiseries, false materials and other subtle subterfuges will be displayed in a profusion of colors and a ballet of paintbrush strokes.
