The Salon Carré (French pronunciation: [salɔ̃ kaʁe]) is an iconic room of the Louvre Palace, created in its current dimensions during a reconstruction of that part of the palace following a fire in February 1661. It gave its name to the longstanding tradition of Salon exhibitions of contemporary art in Paris which had its heyday there between 1725 and 1848.
