Built from 1599 for the King Henri IV, this aviary had been conceived for housing and exhibiting, within the palace, an important population of whistling birds. This article offers an in-depth analysis of this ensemble shedding light on the architectural aspect, the interior dispositions, the recreative as well as the symbolic functions. It reveals the “immersive” character of the aviary and underlines the metaphorical value of an apparatus – spatial, visual, auditive – that aimed above all at celebrating the king. Through a well-groomed presentation of animal captivity, the aviary of Henri IV offered the French court a veritable political allegory. It was the concrete manifestation of the power, the virtues and the supposed benefits of royal absolutism.Cairn free access
