Salon (gathering)

This article is about the type of gathering. For the type of salon where hair is cut and styled, see beauty salon.
Réunion de dames, Abraham Bosse, 17th century

A salon is a gathering of people held by a host. These gatherings often consciously followed Horace's definition of the aims of poetry, "either to please or to educate" (Latin: aut delectare aut prodesse). Salons in the tradition of the French literary and philosophical movements of the 17th and 18th centuries are still being conducted.[1]
