Two Exhibitions in Paris Galleries

Deux expositions dans les galeries parisiennes

Two notable drawing exhibitions are currently on view in Paris galleries. The first, organized by dealer Nicolas Schwed on Rue Saint-Honoré, features a strong selection of old and modern master drawings, with a surprising emphasis on 18th-century French works alongside Italian pieces. Highlights include a preparatory study by Federico Zuccaro for a Roman fresco and a rare drawing of the Trinity by Cornelis Schut, which is linked to a lost altarpiece from Cologne.

Even More Drawings for Versailles

Encore d'autres dessins pour Versailles

The Palace of Versailles has acquired several drawings during the Paris Drawing Week sales in March 2026, including a rare study by Charles de La Fosse for the royal chapel's dome decoration. The drawing, depicting a reclining nude man for "The Resurrection of Christ," was purchased at the Rossini auction of Paul and Florence Vercier's collection for €3,800. This acquisition adds to Versailles' growing collection of La Fosse works, following earlier purchases of an angel study in 2016 and a ceiling project in 2023.

The Fifth Edition of the Paris Print Fair

La cinquième édition de Paris Print Fair

The fifth edition of the Paris Print Fair has opened, solidifying its status as a key event during Drawing Week. The fair, held in the Gothic refectory of the Couvent des Cordeliers, features 25 international exhibitors with a strong focus on old masters and works predating the 1930s, continuing a trend where specialists in older prints take precedence over modern and contemporary galleries. New participants this year include the Swiss dealer August Laube and the Brussels gallery Le Tout-Venant.
