The Louvre’s rich and varied collections give us access to subjects that cover vast areas of the history of humanity and art. The Museum’s editorial mantra is to create works which present this content in such a way as to make it understandable for everyone. The graphic novel collection, launched in 2005 and a collaboration with Futuropolis, target teens and young adult readers. In 2016 the museum began publishing works for younger children through a co-edition with Delcourt.
