Jean-Louis Burtin, sculptor from Nancy, created an important collection of paintings, drawings, sculptures and printes by Lorrain artists. This group was kept by Jean-Louis Burtin's descent until now. It represents only a part of his collection which counted over 300 paintings, drawings and sculptures, and hundreds of prints and an important library. Lots 155 and 157 were however never part of the Burtin collection as they were purchased by his son-in-law.
