Loan of works to the Petit Palais for the Boldini exhibition

The Petit Palais is currently devoting a major exhibition to the Italian artist Giovanni Boldini (1842-1931), whose last retrospective in France dates back more than sixty years. However, the virtuoso portraitist was one of the greatest glories of Paris at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, as an attentive observer of the high society he admired and frequented.

An evocative and immersive scenography accompanies a rich tour of 150 works combining paintings, drawings, engravings, costumes and fashion accessories lent by international museums such as the Giovanni Boldini Museum in Ferrara, the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples, the National Portrait Gallery in London, the Musée d'Orsay, the MAD and many others, as well as numerous private collections.

The Palais Galliera is also honoured to be among the lenders for this exhibition, which invites the public to relive the pleasures of the Belle Époque and the effervescence of a capital at the cutting edge of modernity, through the magnificent work of Boldini.
