Two sketches for the Capitole de Toulouse enter the Musée des Augustins
8/11/24 - Acquisitions - Toulouse, Musée des Augustins - Fortunately, closed museums do not remain inactive, and the Toulouse institution directed for two years by Laure Dalon (see the news item of 16/9/22) certainly could not miss these two attractive studies for the decor of the Salle des Illustres at the Capitole, presented by Bouvet & Associés on 21 February. Purchased for the museum by the Cercle des Mécènes des Augustins and immediately donated, these two works were presented at the Capitole de Toulouse at the beginning of the summer in the presence of elected representatives.
