The Digital Delacroix project team gathers at the French National Assembly for its second seminar
The full project team met for its second seminar inside the Palais Bourbon itself, combining a guided tour of the building's artistic heritage with informal working sessions across the team's disciplines.
The complete team of the Delacroix Project met for its second seminar at the French National Assembly, in an exceptionally significant venue. After an initial gathering that established the project's scientific direction and strategic goals, this meeting took place at the Palais Bourbon, emphasising the importance of anchoring research within one of France's most significant political and historical institutions.
The seminar centred on a guided tour of the National Assembly’s facilities. Barthélémy Jobert conducted the visit, offering thoughtful and engaging guidance that explored the building’s history, artistic heritage and symbolic artistic works. The tour balanced scholarly depth with accessibility, facilitating dialogue across historical analysis, aesthetic interpretation and institutional perspectives.
Beyond the formal tour, the gathering functioned as a crucial collaborative moment. Team members engaged in informal exchanges and interdisciplinary discussions that deepened working relationships and clarified multiple project dimensions.
The seminar demonstrates the Delacroix Project's core commitment: integrating research, heritage preservation and contemporary inquiry through diverse expertise, while meaningfully engaging with culturally and historically significant locations. Future project phases will continue building momentum through rigorous dialogue connecting history, culture and contemporary concerns.
