OMG4599799: Sculpture in the Cour vitree of the Palais des Etudes of the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts de Paris. Extraordinary architectural ensemble designed by Felix Duban (1798-1870) during the 1830s. In 1867, in order to protect the carving castings from the Musee du Louvre, this courtyard was covered with a glass on a metal frame which then constituted all its wealth. At the death of Felix Duban, Ernest Coquart (1831-1903) took over the construction site by covering the facades of a polychrome decor from Italian inspiration. The Palais des Etudes is an exceptional testimony of 19th century architecture. With the Cour vitree, Felix Duban completed the formidable educational program. In 1970, most of the castings were transferred to the Petite stables of the Chateau de Versailles. Photography 03/06/09. / Bridgeman Images
