In Memoriam: Antoine Schnapper

Obituary: Antoine Schnapper

Antoine Schnapper, professor at the Sorbonne, died in August 2004. Schnapper was one of few French scholars who kept up with developments in the field of Dutch art, particularly the art market. On October 21, 2004, the Louvre held an evening devoted to his memory (Hommage à Antoine Schnapper). Pierre Rosenberg, former director of the Louvre; Michel Laclotte, vice-president of the Institut National de l’Histoire de l’Art; MichaelSzanto, a pupil of Schnapper, who has written on Netherlandish art dealers active at the Foire de Saint Germain in the seventeenth century, and three other scholars spoke in Professor Schnapper’s memory. These tributes were followed by a lecture by Michael Montias, “Amsterdam et Paris: Quelques remarques comparativessuscitées par la siècle du nouveau livre de Schnapper, Le métier depeintre au grand siècle.”
