Les 10 meilleurs sites d’histoire de l’art pour réussir ses examens

Beaux Arts Magazine has published a guide for French high school and university students preparing for art history and visual arts exams in the 2025–2026 academic year. The article features advice from two experts: Claire Maingon, a lecturer in contemporary art history at the University of Rouen, and Marie-Élise Ho-Van-Ba, a high school visual arts teacher. They recommend a variety of online resources, including museum websites, the BnF photography site, the Centre Pompidou YouTube channel, the Arte series "Atelier A" and "Pionniers, pionnières," Radio France podcasts, and the educational platform "L'Histoire par l'image." The experts emphasize mastering course material, creating traditional study cards, and understanding spatial and temporal context, technique, and formal analysis of artworks.
