| Sumari: | The relocation of the Papal Court from Italy to France at the beginning of the 14th century and its installation in Avignon for several decades from 1309 gives the opportunity to reflect on the practices of consumption of Italian paintings outside the peninsula. We are first dealing with the construction of an artistic labor market based on the mobility of artists, and then with the construction of a market for works of art, very gradually established, thanks to the new mobility of paintings. Avignon thus played the role of a laboratory for the diffusion of Italian painting in late medieval Europe, both from an aesthetic and economic point of view. |
