Live Only - Huis Clos sale Bringing together over forty years of passion and aesthetic curiosity, this private collection features some one hundred and twenty lots carefully assembled over time by a couple of collectors. Their keen eye, nourished by a long association with Parisian auction houses and leading antique dealers, has produced an ensemble of rare coherence, at the crossroads of Oriental influences, 19th-century refinement and 20th-century modernism. The most emblematic section is undoubtedly that devoted to sculpture. Nineteenth-century bronzes take centre stage here, with a number of extremely fine Orientalist pieces, as well as works of impressive size that bear witness to consistently high artistic standards. The sale will be highlighted by an exceptional group of four monumental bronzes by Joseph Chaumet, allegories of the Four Seasons, of remarkable rarity and quality, forming the heart of this collection. Lovers of paintings will find an eclectic panorama, from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries, dominated by luminous evocations of the Orient, while nineteenth-century furniture and twentieth-century glassware harmoniously complete this refined ensemble. A number of contemporary works, chosen with the same attentive eye, provide a subtle counterpoint to this journey through four centuries of creation. Kept to this day in their home in the Haute-Marne region of France, this collection bears witness to a patient passion, discerning taste and deep attachment to art in all its forms. Its dispersal, exclusively online at Drouot, Interencheres and Invaluable, will offer connoisseurs a rare opportunity to acquire pieces of character that reflect a life devoted to beauty.
