The Louvre Museum

Large Trumeau Mirror and Bergère

During the reorganization of the Louvre Museum’s galleries dedicated to 18th-century furniture, a large Louis XVI-era trumeau mirror was missing.
The Galerie was pleased to donate this carved, painted, and gilded wooden piece, intended to be placed above the fireplace, surrounded by beautiful furniture and objects, including a bergère created in 1788 by J-B. Boulard that belonged to Madame Élisabeth, the sister of Louis XVI. This bergère was also donated to the Museum by the Kraemer family and is currently displayed at the Château de Versailles.

Louis XVI Vase in Sèvres Porcelain

The result of a collaboration between the sculptor Louis Simon Boizot, the painter Pierre Joseph Rosset the Elder, and the gilder Jean-Pierre Boulanger, this vase named “Jardin à Dauphins” was created in anticipation of the birth of the first son of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette in 1781, the second child of the royal couple and heir to the throne.
This large vase was then probably gifted in 1784 by Louis XVI to Prince Henry of Prussia, brother of Frederick II, then King of Prussia.

Printing Jean-Baptiste Capel.
Dijon, 1790
Gift of Kraemer family.

Vice-president and treasurer of the mahJ from 1988 until his death in 2011, Philippe Kraemer played an important role in the creation and development of the museum.

A renowned antique dealer, he had been one of the most active figures on the committee of the Jewish Art Museum on Rue des Saules. After his death, his family offered the mahJ this decree from the National Assembly, dated 1790, recalling the legal protection enjoyed by the Jews of France before their emancipation in 1791.


Galerie Kraemer has donated works
