Acquisition of four works by Camille Claudel
In the year of its opening, the museum's public and private partners rallied round during the auction of the last group of works still owned by the artist's descendants. Four major works have thus enriched the museum's collections: Young Roman, Portrait de Louise Claudel, Old blind person singing and Homme aux bras croisés.
MoreAcquisition of Volubilis, by Alfred Boucher
In 2022, a major work by Alfred Boucher joined the collections of the Camille Claudel Museum: Volubilis. Following the resounding success of this subject at the 1896 Salon, the sculptor continued to use it in a variety of materials, shapes and sizes. The 1.20-meter-high marble, acquired for the museum from the London gallery Bowman Sculpture, is one of the finest examples. This major acquisition completes the museum's reference collection of works by Alfred Boucher (now comprising 223 objects).
