Houses for art - the concept of the museum for paintings in the 19th century

According to the new systematisation realized after 1848, the collection of ancient paintings should offer to the visitor of the Louvre the experience of idealist ecstasy and the benefit of historic learning. In fact, this double aim of the museum is immediately submitted to the critical inquiries of modernity: eclecticism of the canonic references, marginal investments, art business development ... At the end of the century, the aesthetic value due to the intimate and mystical experience develops an alternative imagery against classical museum. Is there a home for painting? that is the question.
