    I like his final sentiment, that treasures ought to circulate and have new homes to be appreciated by others. It is good to collect beautiful things for themselves and not as an obsessive acquisitor.

    I'm saving this video so I can use this as my reference for my future home. I am tired of the minimalist aesthetic -- cold, sterile, and office-like, doesn't feel like a home to me.
    Thank you, Jean-Louis, for showing us your passion. There's absolutely nothing like European decor as every piece has a history to it. Old world charm at its finest. 😊

      LaDivinaLover people feel happy if they have money, but it’s the mindset of people with money risky. If a person grow up with ton of money, he suffers empty. People want to have a good taste because they want to be a socialite, or because they need that to live with money. But when they have too much of good taste in mind, it’s like an idiot.

      And all to Middle Eastern or Chinese billionaires no doubt to never be seen again. To be frank though, these sorts of things always disgust me. How did this one man get all of these extraordinary things to 'collect' only to disperse them in a manner which will likely cause them to never be seen again or never even be able to be sold again since people like Middle Eastern Princes and Chinese billionaires see everything as disposable and merely buy to buy, regardless if they leave them to dryrot.

      @@caligulalonghbottom2629 Your comment has more than a whiff of racism. He himself bought those items from various other wealthy people who collected for their own pleasure. No one got to see them then and only now we get to see them when he is ready to flog them on to raise money for his own chateau. What difference does it make the others are Middle Eastern princes or Chinese billionaires? Money is money and he needs it and they have it.

    For centuries, art has fascinated people. The sensitivity of the audience resulted from being stimulated by cultural events, social changes, wars, etc.
    This is how new directions in art emerged. Today's world needs something else, and that's why Compmaturism.
    The works of the Compmaturists relate to today's human needs; they are emotional, devoid of routine and calculation.
    They are filled with art juice.That is why I love COMPMATURISM

    Très beau commentaire de ce collectionneur. J'aime et je comprends sa relation à l'objet et à la collection d'objets. Il y a une intelligence de la perception et, ce faisant, de la mise en lien entre les différentes pièces; qui aime les objets sait qu'ils se répondent les uns les autres, par catégories, par familles; une collection est une communion d'objets, d'icônes. Il n'a pas dû être simple de se départir de ses collections, qui représentent aussi un voyage dans le temps, celui du passé mais aussi celui de la recherche, de la quête. Toutefois, on comprend que cette décision est au service d'une oeuvre plus grande encore, l'entretien des bâtiments; l'embellissement contingent sacrifié à la sauve-garde de la superstructure essentielle, immuable.

      L'objet est là pour apporter de la beauté à l'existence. Rendre la vie plus belle grâce à l'objet quotidien. Une chaise. Une table. Que sais-je encore... Tous ces objets qui accompagnent notre quotidien grâce à leur esthétique nous font percevoir un plaisir et pourquoi pas un bonheur ... Sans être collectionneur on peut vivre ces moments là grâce à des objets beaux et fonctionnels.

    I also liked that the Russian artist Serebryakov captured in watercolors the marvelous interiors of this castle, and all this remained in the history of the great culture of France.
