Through his images, daylight is shown to gradate while vanishing lines and historical textures dominate the composition.<\/p>\n<p>the Cour Marly is filled with diffused daylight under its soaring glass canopy | images \u00a9 Franck Bohbot<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">a study in scale and symmetry<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>From the Cour Marly\u2019s glass-roofed sculpture garden to the saturated reds and gilded vaults of the Galerie d\u2019Apollon, Franck Bohbot\u2019s photographs emphasize the extravagance of Le Louvre\u2019s interiors. In one frame, natural light pours through the vast barrel vaults of the Denon Wing, illuminating a receding array of stone statues. In another, the austere framing of the Mona Lisa\u2019s gallery creates a visual standoff between viewer and object.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/franckbohbot.com\/\"><strong>photographer<\/strong><\/a> writes: \u2018<em>It\u2019s a study in scale and silence, where every corridor, color palette, and composition pays homage to those who designed and preserved these spaces<\/em>.\u2019 His focus on symmetry heightens the architectural rhythm. Arches mirror arches, columns recede in dramatic perspective, and light bounces from the polished floors to the intricate ceilings overhead.<\/p>\n<p>Franck Bohbot emphasizes the strict symmetry of the Louvre\u2019s main corridors<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wow wow-yellow\">the vast museum\u2019s layered history<\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Along with its visual order, Franck Bohbot\u2019s photographs record the layered temporality of Le Louvre. The museum was originally a medieval fortress, then a royal palace, and finally a public museum. This architectural evolution is evident throughout the vast museum, from the 12th century vestiges of the lower ground to the opulent 19th-century galleries.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the rooms of antiquities, worn stone artifacts appear framed by neoclassical arches and softly reflective limestone walls. Meanwhile, the checkered flooring and classical columns of an upper-level hall lead toward a sculptural niche with exaggerated symmetry. \u2018<em>This series is less about documentation and more about reverence<\/em>,\u2019 Bohbot says, \u2018<em>for the stories embedded in stone, for the invisible presence of human hands, and for the timelessness of space when it\u2019s given the chance to simply exist<\/em>.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>the grand painting hall is rhythmically punctuated by arched skylights<\/p>\n<p>a series of stone columns lead to a tranquil gallery alcove<\/p>\n<p>the Galerie d\u2019Apollon glows with gilded ornament and painted ceiling panels<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>antique sculpture halls are washed in quiet, indirect morning light<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>fragments of ancient architecture are framed by classical archways<\/p>\n<p>golden galleries are layered with framed portraits and ornament<\/p>\n<p>\t<!-- CLOSE ARTICLE CONTENT --><\/p>\n<div class=\"fullwidth-image\">\n<div class=\"layout-box\">\n<div class=\"page-content\">\n<p>the Mona Lisa sits in a starkly geometric enclosure of pale stone and steel<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\t<!-- OPEN ARTICLE CONTENT -->\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>project info:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>museum: <\/strong>Mus\u00e9e du Louvre<\/p>\n<p><strong>photographer:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/franckbohbot.com\/\">Franck Bohbot<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/FRANCKBOHBOT\">@franckbohbot<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>location:\u00a0<\/strong>Paris, France<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/architecture\/galleries-musee-louvre-franck-bohbot-museum-paris-photography-04-14-2025\/\">explore the silent and opulent galleries of the louvre through franck bohbot\u2019s lens<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designboom.com\/\">designboom | architecture &amp; design magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>franck bohbot captures le louvre in new photo series \u00a0 A series of photographs by Franck Bohbot presents an unusually quiet and architecturally focused portrait of Paris\u2018s Mus\u00e9e du Louvre.
