Meeting the little prince ExhibitionFebruary 17 to June 26, 2022
The Musée des Arts Décoratifs presents the first major museum exhibition in France devoted to The Little Prince, a timeless masterpiece of literature.
More than 600 exhibits celebrate the many facets of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: writer, poet, aviator, explorer, journalist, inventor, philosopher, driven all his life by a humanist ideal, the driving force behind his work.

On the occasion of this exceptional tribute, the original manuscript, kept at the Morgan Library & Museum in New York and never before presented to the French public, is set against watercolors, sketches and drawings – most of them previously unpublished – as well as manuscripts, photographs, poems, newspaper clippings and extracts from correspondence.
The Little Prince, the last book to be published during Saint-Exupéry’s lifetime, was written and published in the United States in 1943, but released in France in 1946. Since then, it has been a success story that crosses borders and eras, conveying a universal message.
