Like any self-respecting art dealer, I have always loved buying workshop funds…
I have had quite a few in my career that of Paul Audra with a J9 truck full of paintings, sometimes over two meters , watercolors and drawings, to that of Micheline Leichnamm, miniature artist: a shoe box !
From time to time, I find some lost in the middle of my cartons of drawings, like these four works by Petitjean, which I do not know who he could be, the closest, although technically very different could be Hippolyte as works of youth, but without any guarantee.
Do not hesitate to ask us by email or telephone for additional information or photos. We have many objects and paintings to restore in our shop / Capernaum / depot in Pau where I let myself be overwhelmed and for which we favor the sale on the spot, preferably in lots.
Come help us tidy up by buying !
