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 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.

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.
