Bringing together nearly 75 works by 44 artists, the ensemble charts a passage through French and Belgian painting from the late 19th to the mid-20th century\u0014from Impressionism and the Pont-Aven School to the Nabis and Symbolism\u0014while reflecting a collector\u0019s taste refined over two decades.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align:left\">Highlights and movements<\/h2>\n<p>The sale opens with pioneers of plein-air and Pre-Impressionism. Among the early anchors are Jean-Fran\u0000e7ois Millet\u0019s <em>Barque de p\u0000eache<\/em>, circa 1870\u00131871 (estimate \u00008500,000\u0013800,000), and Th\u0000e9odore G\u0000e9ricault\u0019s <em>Cheval palomino effray\u0000e9 par un lion et une lionne<\/em>, 1822\u00131823 (estimate \u00008350,000\u0013450,000). Corot, Courbet, and Boudin further signal the growing attention to nature, light, and motif that propelled later revolutions.<\/p>\n<p>Impressionism appears in two canvases by <strong>Berthe Morisot<\/strong>, including <em>Dans les vignes<\/em>, 1882 (estimate \u00008250,000\u0013350,000), alongside <em>La Roche Plate au Portrieux<\/em>. Landscape and colour deepen in works by Henri Martin, Armand Guillaumin, and Henry Moret.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of the auction, the Pont-Aven School and the Nabis are represented by <strong>Maurice Denis<\/strong>, <strong>Pierre Bonnard<\/strong>, and <strong>\u0000c9douard Vuillard<\/strong>. Denis\u0019s <em>L\u0019\u0000cele Chevalier<\/em>, 1894 (estimate \u00008700,000\u00131,000,000), leads the group, presented with <em>Sancta Martha<\/em> (estimate \u00008600,000\u0013800,000). Bonnard\u0019s chromatic intensity is on view in <em>La petite Fen\u0000eatre<\/em>, 1946 (estimate \u00008550,000\u0013750,000), and <em>La baignade<\/em> (estimate \u00008150,000\u0013250,000). Vuillard\u0019s <em>Misia Natanson dans un bois<\/em>, circa 1897\u00131899 (estimate \u00008450,000\u0013650,000), brings an intimate register. Works by Vallotton, Laval, and S\u0000e9rusier join Paul Ranson\u0019s <em>Suzanne et les vieillards<\/em> in this decisive chapter.<\/p>\n<p>The Belle \u0000c9poque and Symbolism expand the field: Louis Anquetin\u0019s <em>Au bar<\/em> sits with works by Forain and Raffa\u0000eblli, while Belgian Symbolism is marked by Fernand Khnopff\u0019s <em>\u0000c9tude pour la D\u0000e9fiance<\/em> (estimate \u00008300,000\u0013400,000) and L\u0000e9on Spilliaert\u0019s <em>Fillette au grand chapeau, bord de mer<\/em>, 1909 (estimate \u00008300,000\u0013400,000). Odilon Redon, Puvis de Chavannes, L\u0000e9vy-Dhurmer, and Lacoste complete this exploration of imagination and inner life.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align:left\">A collector\u0019s path<\/h2>\n<p>Louis Grandchamp des Raux began visiting Parisian museums at ten. The inheritance of his grandfather\u0019s collection helped clarify his vocation, and for nearly twenty years he assembled a group of 17th- and 18th-century French paintings, including Boucher, Fragonard, Hubert Robert, and Greuze. From 2010 onward, his attention turned to the transition to modernity, from Corot to the Nabis, with a particular fascination for Maurice Denis and \u0000c9douard Vuillard.<\/p>\n<p>A first auction in 2015, dedicated to 17th- and 18th-century French painting and organised with Artcurial and Sotheby\u0019s, marked a milestone. With <em>A shared Modernity<\/em>, that spirit of renewal continues: the auction frames both an exceptional selection and the portrait of a collector choosing to explore, share, and now pass on this chapter in the birth of modern painting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right\"><em>V\u00eda <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artasiapacific.com\/partnerships\/louis-grandchamp-des-raux-collection-a-shared-modernity\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">artasiapacific.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On October 24, 2026, during Art Basel Paris, Artcurial will auction A shared Modernity from the collection of Louis Grandchamp des Raux, gathering nearly 75 works by 44 artists across movements from Impressionism and the Nabis to Symbolism.
