Lovers


After the entrance-archway prologue, the exhibition moved into photographs of courting and lovers.1 “Love” is one of the themes explicitly named on CNA Luxembourg’s educational portal as part of its count of 37 themes.2

The boundaries of this cluster are not canonical: the 1955 catalog does not present a numbered table of contents, and different institutional sources parse the same flow into different numbers of sub-themes. This article documents a thematic cluster reconstructed from MoMA’s own narrative summary of the sequence.1
