Deux autoportraits de Joseph Ducreux rejoignent les collections de Stockholm

6/1/20 - Acquisitions - Stockholm, Nationalmuseum - L’un exprime une surprise teintée de terreur, l’autre fait signe de se taire, le doigt sur sa bouche. Joseph Ducreux est aujourd’hui connu pour ses multiples autoportraits qui sont autant de têtes d’expression. Deux d’entre eux ont été acquis par le Nationalmuseum de Stockholm ; ils étaient passés en vente à Paris le 21 novembre 2018 chez Art-Richelieu, adjugés 120 000 euros (sans les frais).
