Catalogue of the exhibition (Paris, 2025-2025 ; Milan, 2026) dedicated to Paul Troubetzkoy, an important sculptor, who, thanks to his contacts, painted a splendid portrait of the Belle Époque, between Milan, Paris and the United States. Text in French.
Catalogue of the exhibition (Paris, 2025-2025 ; Milan, 2026) dedicated to Paul Troubetzkoy, an important sculptor, who, thanks to his contacts, painted a splendid portrait of the Belle Époque, between Milan, Paris and the United States. Text in French.
The exhibition and catalogue retrace the extraordinary career of Paul Troubetzoky (1866-1938), an Italian sculptor, a Russian prince by birth and Parisian by adoption, who at the same time enjoyed a brilliant career in the United States. Driven by his talent as a portraitist, he was sought after by a cosmopolitan elite, celebrities, in particular of Paris, and even the first American film stars. His life was punctuated by decisive encounters and friendships with men of letters, Tolstoj in Russia, George Bernard Shaw in Paris, with whom he shared a vegetarian lifestyle, quite unusual for the time. In addition to the portraits that made his reputation, the exhibition will also highlight his animal sculpture, as well as his astonishing works relating to the animal cause, of which he was, before his time, a fervent defender. Thanks to prestigious loans, visitors will discover a sensitive and modern artist, particularly subtle in his ability to render the fluidity of bodies, the energy of movement and the strength of character.
