Can you truly chart your own artistic destiny when you come from an illustrious dynasty of artists and collectors? Between family heritage and quest for individuality, Augustin Rouart has chosen. His path will be free and liberated or it will not be. A cottony palette, unfathomable faces, lyrical compositions, how could we forget this virtuoso artist? His grandfather, Henri Rouart, close friend of Degas, was a passionate collector, lover of Corot, Toulouse-Lautrec, Courbet, Daumier, and many others. Brilliant minds from the literary and musical world like Paul Valéry or Ernest Chausson had the pleasant habit of spending their evenings in their family home. Between dreams and memories, we go back in time, surrounded by the paintings of Berthe Morisot, Julie Manet, Maurice Denis, and of course, Henri and Ernest Rouart.
