Maison Trivius — Private Sales and Art Valuation, Paris
The maison at the crossroads — Paris
To lead works
to the eyes that desire them
Valorisation and private sales of works of art, from the 15th century to contemporary art.
Valorise
Provenance
Every work has a history of hands and houses. We reconstruct it from archives and literature, until it stands up to a museum's questions.
Archive
Every work carries a memory with it. We set it down in writing: documents, studies, restorations — the dossier that accompanies it across generations.
Exhibitions
A work returns to sight when the space and the text deserve it. Few works, well-tended texts: each exhibition leaves it one more history.
Films
Some works call for light and movement. Short films that precede the work: whoever meets it has already, in part, seen it.
The Reading
A writer looks at the work, and writes it. Cahiers and authors' readings that enter the literature of the work, and remain there.
The Study
The science of the work belongs to independent scholars. The maison commissions it and never signs it: every judgement that accompanies the work is impartial.
“One should break silence only to say something that is worth more than the silence.”
Passing On
The crossroads exists because the roads go on.
To those who own a work
The maison studies it, speaks for it, and leads it where its value is recognized: the right collection, the right wall, the right eyes. By private treaty, under mandate.
To those who seek a work
Every collection lacks one work. The roads of the crossroads set out from Paris and cross the world to meet it.
