The Mouseion · The Season · Love Stories

Love Stories

Lovers, letters and longing

Myths of desire, couples at the dance, love letters read in quiet rooms, and the long goodbyes of lovers parted. Every culture painted love, and almost none of them painted it simply.

When it’s on

In The Season’s hall, off the Hall: February 2026.

The works

The works are chosen when the exhibition is hung, a few days before it opens.

Where the works come from

Every work in the Mouseion is a real piece, out of copyright everywhere, shown from the open collections of the museums that hold it — each label names the original’s museum and links to its page there.
