| description | The records of Galerie Cailleux, now housed at the INHA, document sales of 15th to 18th-century artworks, organized alphabetically by artist. They include details such as sale year, artwork dimensions, price, and buyer (though some fields are incomplete), along with supporting materials like account tables and exhibition catalogues. Founded by Paul Cailleux in 1923 and later directed by his son, art historian Jean de Cayeux, the gallery became a renowned dealer of Old Master paintings and drawings. Jean, a graduate of the École du Louvre and a prominent expert on 18th-century art, continued the gallery’s legacy, publishing extensively on artists like Hubert Robert.
