Marguerite Gérard and Fragonard at the Getty Museum

Marguerite Gérard et Fragonard au Getty Museum

The J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles has acquired a painting jointly created by Marguerite Gérard and Jean-Honoré Fragonard, titled "Je m’occupais de vous" (I was taking care of you). Long thought lost, the work was rediscovered by art historian Carole Blumenfeld during her research on the two artists and was publicly shown in Ajaccio in summer 2007 at the exhibition "Le cardinal Fesch et l’art de son temps." After returning to a private collection, it has now entered the Getty Museum's holdings.
