Exhibition
New York
1935–1936
The Metropolitan Museum of Art presented French Painting and Sculpture of the XVIII Century in New York in 1935–1936. The historical exhibition addressed eighteenth-century French art. Its reconstructed pictorial selection retains the individual paintings and their catalogue references. Documented examples include Charles Amédée Philippe Van Loo’s Soap Bubbles (1764; oil on canvas) and François Boucher’s The Love Letter (1750; oil on canvas). The reconstructed checklist is partial, and exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
