1986–1987
Museum of Fine Arts, Houston presented A Magic Mirror: The Portrait in France 1700-1900 in 1986–1987. The National Gallery of Art’s published object histories document 2 surviving works in this reconstruction: Ange Laurent de La Live de Jully by Jean-Baptiste Greuze (probably 1759; oil on canvas); The Tragic Actor (Rouvière as Hamlet) by Edouard Manet (1866; oil on canvas). The links follow native object identifiers and accessions, retaining the history’s catalogue references and the present unqualified maker attribution. This evidence identifies selected exhibited paintings, drawings or original prints; it does not establish artist attendance, ownership by the host, or a complete checklist. Exact opening and closing days remain unconfirmed.
