Tourism & Travel / Museum displays
French term or phrase: grille (here)
In a description of displays at a museum. Context: "Ce sont 27 tableaux, 24 vitrines, **14 grilles**, plus de 600 photos, 350 documents écrits, 10 vitrines fermées, 130 objets authentiques d'époque à découvrir." What is a "grille" here? Any help gratefully received!

Explanation:
I wonder if this could be referring to “grilles de présentation/d’exposition”, as in the link below.

So far, my search has turned up “art display grid” as a possible English equivalent (see link below), but there may well be other, more widely used terms.

Table?


Explanation:
This term has a number of meanings. In terms of displays in a museum it could refer to display tables. If I were you I would ask for clarification or a visual.

neutral  AllegroTrans: Cannot see how this improves on Lucy's answer or why you need to add "mesh"; would there really be mesh on such a museum display panel??
