Between the end of 2021 and the end of 2022 the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Wallace collection in London hosted the exhibition Inspiring Walt Disney: the Animation of French Decorative Arts, in two iterations. This review looks at how the curators presented eighteenth-century decorative arts to the general public and addresses some of the more critical questions underlying the exhibition, which remained veiled in the galleries.
