Galerie Kraemer regularly loans works to museums for exhibitions, often for events related to the 18th century,
but also when an object is suitable to illustrate a particular theme.
from January 24 to July 21, 2025.
At the Louvre Museum, artworks from the Kraemer Gallery engage in a dialogue with Haute Couture. The exhibition “LOUVRE COUTURE.
Art Objects, Fashion Objects” presents around a hundred silhouettes and accessories from renowned fashion designers that resonate with the decorative arts present in the museum, illustrating the very close ties that bind fashion to art.
Here, in front of this Louis XVI cylinder desk, made for the King of Sardinia and stamped by Mathieu-Guillaume Cramer (circa 1775), from the Kraemer Gallery, is a dress by the brand LOEWE, created by Jonathan Anderson, from the Ready-to-Wear Autumn/Winter 2024-2025 collection.

From October 19, 2024, to March 30, 2025.
“Rosemania,” the exhibition that traces the history of the rose in the arts at the Abbey of Saint-Riquier, has invited Galerie Kraemer to lend precious 18th-century objects, including this Louis XV period “pot-pourri” vase trinket in porcelain from the Vincennes manufacture (circa 1750).
In the 18th century, the rose was ubiquitous in paintings, tapestries, and among ornamentalists, cabinetmakers, goldsmiths, and porcelain makers.
Queen Marie-Antoinette greatly appreciated them, and the rose was featured in a large part of her wardrobe.
The “Rosemania” exhibition also benefits from loans from the Louvre Museum, the Royal Collection Trust and the National Gallery in London, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid, and the Galleria Nazionale dell’Umbria in Perugia.
From September 5 to November 3, 2025
The dog held a privileged place at the court of Versailles.
Louis XIV was fond of braques, which accompanied him on hunts. The dwarf spaniel was particularly appreciated in royal courts, notably by Madame de Pompadour and the Dauphine Marie-Josèphe of Saxony.
A painting by Maurice-Quentin de La Tour depicts the Dauphine, accompanied by the Duke of Burgundy, alongside their small dog.
For the occasion, Galerie Kraemer has lent this rare Louis XVI period carved, molded, and painted wooden dog kennel.
La galerie kraemer a prêté pour l’occasion cette rare niche en bois sculpté, mouluré et peint, d’époque Louis XVI.
November 29, 2016, to March 26, 2017
The Château de Versailles organized an exhibition that showcased the infinite varieties and ingenuities of court entertainments, making Versailles a place of celebrations and spectacles with ever-increasing grandeur, extraordinary, and fantastical elements.
Spanning three reigns, from Louis XIV to the Revolution, the exhibition did not aim to be exhaustive but rather focused on the courtier’s experience.
The goal was to present the infinite varieties and ingenuities of the entertainments offered at court, whether provided by the king or practiced by the courtiers themselves.
For the occasion, Galerie Kraemer lent this personal gaming marker of King Louis XV, made of engraved ivory, used to note the king’s and his close friends’ losses and gains.
In addition to being a talented landscape painter, Hubert Robert was a prolific and gifted draftsman, an engaging engraver, an interior decorator, and a garden designer. Witty, intelligent, and highly sought after, this beloved bon vivant and humorist moved easily in the highest circles of Parisian society.
This exhibition was organized in partnership between the National Gallery of Art in Washington and the Musée du Louvre. Galerie Kraemer lent a painting by the famous artist for the occasion.
Sister of King Louis XVI, Madame Elisabeth was one of the emblematic figures of the court and the village of Montreuil, where she owned a residence.
The exhibition took place at the Domaine de Madame Elisabeth, specifically in her residence and in the Orangerie: between the princess’s outfits, interior fragrances, and furniture, we are transported into the intimacy of Elisabeth of France.
For the occasion, Galerie Kraemer lent a voyeur chair stamped by Jean-Baptiste SÉNÉ, carved by Alexandre RÉGNIER, and gilded by CHATARD.
Organized at the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow, the exhibition was envisioned as a dialogue between the most beautiful dresses created by Christian Dior and contemporary artworks, as well as those from the 18th century.
This exhibition demonstrated that contemporary haute couture is increasingly occupying a significant place in the world’s major museums. However, the essential idea is the relationship between the past and the future.
To illustrate the richness and style of the 18th century, so dear to the creativity of the couturier from 30 Avenue Montaigne, the Pushkin Museum displayed furniture from Galerie Kraemer, such as the famous Louis XVI medallion-back chair, so emblematic of the House of Dior.
