Eugène Leroy (1910-2000)

Gérard Depardieu’s soon-to-be-auctioned collection includes many works by Eugène Leroy (1910-2000), an artist who appealed to the actor with his unique paintings that are part figurative, part abstract but always moving.

The powerful 20th-century works mirror the actor’s personality. Sculpture and Eugène Leroy took center stage.

Eugène Delacroix (1798-1863) was deeply attached to religion and painted a range of Biblical subjects, like this dark and expressive Entombment of Christ.

This collection, unprecedented on the market, was crafted by Eugène Printz in the 1930s for a villa in Casablanca and is part of a sale spotlighting 20th century decorative arts.

The interest of collectors is definitely not waning for the French cabinetmaker and decorator. This is reflected in the €2.46 million recorded by Arles Enchères on October 3, during the dispersal of a Provencal collection dedicated to him - a lineup designed with Jean Dunand flying off on this occasion at €620,000.

The gallery announced on its Instagram account its collaboration with the family of Eugène Dodeigne (1923-2015). The first exhibition in the Parisian space will coincide with the centenary of the birth of the French sculptor, to whom La Piscine de Roubaix dedicated its first French retrospective in 2021.

This work from Dr. Henri Faure's collection is only the central portion of a huge fresco created by Eugène B., aka "The chronically delusional patient", c. 1927-1933.

Starting on October 23, 2023, a selection of work from the Parisian institution, which will be closed for renovations next fall, will go on display at the Gustave Courbet Museum in Ornans. The Musée Delacroix will reopen in March 2024, with a new exhibition layout.

Magnificently restored, the Duc d'Aumale's apartment in Chantilly, decorated by Eugène Lami, reminds us that the eclecticism of the Second Empire was born under the July Monarchy.

In the 1930s, the Art Deco cabinetmaker created a complete set of furniture commissioned by an avant-garde woman for her Paris flat. Preserved intact in a Provençal mansion, these lavish pieces unleashed a torrent of impressive bids.
