Album amicorum
Pour rendre hommage à Arnauld Brejon de Lavergnée qui va quitter ses fonctions au Mobilier national en mai 2012, une centaine de ses collègues et amis en France et à l'étranger ont décidé d'écrire chacun une notice sur une œuvre d'art de leur choix. Elles seront réunies en un volume préfacé par Yves Bonnefoy, professeur honoraire au Collège de France et Marco Chiarini, ancien directeur de la Galleria Palatina au Palazzo Pitti à Florence. Pensionnaire de l'Académie de France à Rome à la Villa Médicis en 1972, conservateur au musée de Cluny en 1974, puis au département des peintures du musée du Louvre en 1976, également professeur à l'Ecole du Louvre, Arnauld Brejon de Lavergnée a dirigé de 1987 à 2003 le Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille dont il a assuré la rénovation, avant de prendre la direction des collections du Mobilier national. Il est l'un des grands connaisseurs de la peinture italienne et française des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles à laquelle il a consacré de nombreuses publications et expositions.
Goya, Another Look
During his own lifetime Francisco Goya (1746-1828) was thought to be without rival in his native Spain. Since his death, his legacy has received ever-higher acclaim. This illustrated catalogue presents several distinct aspects of Goya's oeuvre, including the tapestry cartoons, his religious works and still-life paintings, related to the inventory of works of art he kept for himself in his studio. These diverse groups afford a series of insights into this artist's successful career. In turn, it shows that Goya at his most public can be as private and revealing as he is in the works he held back from public view.
Rubens
A simple mission lies at the heart of "Rubens": to give the most complete picture of the great Flemish master as possible. No fewer than 163 paintings, sketches, and drawings by the artist, plus nine tapestries, are put to this worthy task. A faithful, objective understanding of Rubens arises, from his beginnings under the influence of his master Otto Venius and Italian art, right through to the end of his career, when he basked in a major Spanish commission. Rubens is at home in all genres, and all are represented here: from landscapes to portraits, from altarpieces to genre scenes, and historical paintings too, of course. Even the talents of the decorator are revealed in his painted sketch...
Woven Gold
Meticulously woven by hand with wool, silk, and gilt-metal thread, the tapestry collection of the Sun King, Louis XIV of France, represents the highest achievements of the art form. Intended to enhance the king’s reputation by visualizing his manifest glory and to promote the kingdom’s nascent mercantile economy, the royal collection of tapestries included antique and contemporary sets that followed the designs of the greatest artists of the Renaissance and Baroque periods, including Raphael, Giulio Romano, Rubens, Vouet, and Le Brun. Ranging in date from about 1540 to 1715 and coming from weaving workshops across northern Europe, these remarkable works portray scenes from the bible, his...
