In 2020, at a time when lockdowns were restricting access to art and exchanges with collectors, galerie L\u00e9age founded \u201cYoung Collectors\u201d. Aimed at a new generation of art amateurs, this site unveils part of the gallery\u2019s collections online for the first time. In this way, it enables the excellence of 18th<\/sup>-century decorative arts to be made more widely available to connoisseurs. Collectors can buy objects directly online, further facilitating access to these works of art.<\/p>\n\n The \u201cYoung Collectors\u201d collection is made up of works specially selected by Guillaume L\u00e9age. They meet the same criteria of authenticity and historical relevance as the rest of the gallery\u2019s collection, but at a more accessible price of between 5,000 and 30,000 euros. A remarkable coin purse embroidered with the arms of Marie-Jos\u00e8phe de Saxe, wife of the Dauphin and mother of Louis XVI, was one of the first \u201cYoung Collectors\u201d pieces. Of exceptional provenance and conservation quality, this little masterpiece has now joined the collections of the Royal Castle of Warsaw.<\/p>\n\n From clocks and mounted porcelain to caskets and Compign\u00e9 paintings, the \u201cYoung Collectors\u201d catalogue is distinguished by its diversity. Ces \u0153uvres, par leur format, leur finesse d\u2019ex\u00e9cution, leur histoire et leur raret\u00e9, offrent une introduction privil\u00e9gi\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019univers des arts d\u00e9coratifs du XVIIIe<\/sup> si\u00e8cle. Compign\u00e9 paintings, rarely seen on the market and seldom represented in public collections, are often offered in the Young Collectors\u2019 selection. R\u00e9alis\u00e9s par le marchand tabletier parisien Thomas Compign\u00e9 dans la seconde moiti\u00e9 du XVIIIe<\/sup> si\u00e8cle, ils ne sont probablement fabriqu\u00e9s que par lui et disparaissent avant la fin du si\u00e8cle. City views or landscapes are of unparalleled finesse and delicacy.<\/p>\n\n Explore our catalogue to discover these masterpieces and their history.<\/p>\n\n
