Voiles: Sailing Through Time and Art - From Tuiga in the Light to Breugel's Galere, discover the timeless allure of sails in art. The Dance of the Seven Veils may be a theatrical reference, but the enchantment of billowing sails is universal, as depicted in Sailboats (1894) and Working on the Sail (1887). Paris Plaisirs magazine celebrated this tradition in the 1920s, while innovation took flight with Navigation Aérienne. Lanteigne menuisier's Voiles Mobile showcases modern design, and Paris Sans Voiles imagines a world without them. The Dolly Sisters' Mazurka costumes, reminiscent of billowing sails, add a playful touch to this exploration of the enduring appeal of voiles.
