Salon Introduction
Salon culture refers to the social and intellectual gatherings, historically emerging in 17th and 18th century Europe, where individuals exchanged ideas, art, and political opinions. These gatherings often took place in private homes, usually hosted by influential women known as salonnières, who played a crucial role in shaping public discourse and cultural development.
