Info
Beneath the arcades of the main courtyard at Les Invalides, an open-air display traces the history of Franco-American relations through sixteen portraits. It begins with La Fayette and the American War of Independence, then explores the ties forged through conflicts, political exchanges and cultural life.
The lives of Joseph Joffre and John Pershing shed light on military cooperation during the First World War. Those of Joséphine Baker, who joined the Resistance, and Alexander Calder, who worked on both sides of the Atlantic, shift the focus to other forms of engagement and cross-Atlantic exchange.
Practical information
- The panels, mounted on the pillars of the main courtyard, are free to view.
