The Musée des Arts Décoratifs presents the first major exhibition in France dedicated to the timeless literary masterpiece, The Little Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
This exhibition, entitled À la rencontre du petit prince (An Encounter with the petit prince), brings together more than 600 works that celebrate the many facets of Antoine de Saint- Exupéry’s extraordinary life as a writer, poet, aviator, explorer, journalist, inventor, and philosopher who was driven all his life by a humanistic ideal, the true driving force of his work.
An encounter with the petit prince showcases the original manuscript of The Little Prince, which belongs to the permanent collection of the Morgan Library & Museum in New York City, alongside watercolors, sketches, drawings, papers, photographs, poems, newspaper clippings and correspondence produced by Saint-Exupéry over the course of his life.
Written and published in the United States in 1943 and in France in 1946 only, Le Petit Prince was the final work of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, published during his lifetime and undoubtedly his most prolific, sharing with readers a universal message while transcending borders and time.
