 Paris Salon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Paris Salon (French: Salon de Paris) is the official art exhibition of the Académie des beaux-arts in Paris, France.
Beginning in 1725 the salon was held in the Palace of the Louvre, when it became known as Salon de Paris.
In the 19th century the idea of a public salon extended to an annual government-sponsored juried exhibition of new painting and sculpture, held in large commercial halls, to which the ticket-bearing public was invited.

 Salon (gathering) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Paris Salon was originally an officially-sanctioned exhibit of recent works of painting and sculpture by members of the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture, starting in 1673 and soon moving from the Salon Carré of the Palace of the Louvre.
The most famous of the literary salons of Paris formed in the 1620s were the Hôtel de Rambouillet by Madame de Rambouillet and the rival salon that gathered around Madeleine de Scudéry.

 Paris Salons
1903– Salon d'automne, organised by the Société du Salon d'automne.
Salon is the name given to the official exhibition of members of the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture.
As these were the only public exhibitions in Paris, the official academic art obtained a stranglehold on publicity, and in the 19th century a number of rival Salons were organised by progressive artists.

 Comic Art Exhibition (Getty Press Release)
Los Angeles—The famed caricaturists of 19th-century Paris, a group that included many of the leading graphic artists of the day, sharpened their poison pens each year to satirize the serious art selected for display in the official exhibition, called the Salon.
A new exhibition, Comic Art: The Paris Salon in Caricature, at the Getty Center from November 18, 2003 through February 15, 2004, examines the wit, wisdom, and scathing commentary of these graphic satirists during their heyday, from the 1830s through the turn of the century.
The caricaturists' main target remained the Salon and its focus on the staid old-line art establishment, but innovative "avant-garde" artists also took their share of satirical punches.  Edouard Manet and Gustave Courbet were among the popular targets.
