2014 Acquisition: A Masterpiece by Charles le Brun

Another great gift from Jayne Wrightsman joins the collection. In 2014 Jayne Wrightsman stepped forward to help The Met acquire an extraordinary masterpiece—a great painting, at a great price. Former Director Thomas Campbell describes how this keystone of French 17th-century painting was acquired; Curator Keith Christiansen interprets its details; and Conservator Michael Gallagher explains how it was conserved. Today, the painting anchors the Museum's 17th-century European painting collection. Thank you, Jayne!
