Modern Invention, Ancient Legacy
A modern invention with an ancient heritage. As the Olympic and Paralympic Games return to Paris for the third time in 2024, the Musée du Louvre is offering visitors the opportunity to explore the creation of the first Olympic Games and its iconographic sources at the end of the 19th century, to understand the political context and what motivated its organisers to reinvent the competitions of ancient Greece.
