Art

Pierre Soulages, a legendary figure in French abstract art, left an estate estimated to be worth 50 million euros when he died in 2022. His canvases, prized by collectors, fetch record prices, including a sale of over 20 million euros in 2021. Known for his generosity, Soulages and his wife Colette donated part of their collection to the Musée Soulages, thus ensuring the continuity of his work.
