The online auction of the Hubert de Givenchy – Collectionneur invites collector to discover the great couturier’s art of living and hosting across two sessions: L’art de vivre à l’hôtel d’Orrouer (8–22 June) and L’art de recevoir au Manoir du Jonchet (8–23 June). The curated selection showcases how Hubert de Givenchy mixed the styles of his collection, hosted guests and lived in these extraordinary residences. Expect works and designs by some of the great artisans from the 18th century as well as examples by iconic 20th century interior designers and brands, including Maison Jansen, Maison Toulouse, David Hicks, Maison Le Manach and Maison Decour. Hubert de Givenchy was a great champion for these design houses, whose skill and talent he both admired and encouraged. There are works for all tastes and budgets, with estimates starting at €100 and numerous editions by the best-known names on the market now.

Explore the entire programme for our auction series of this legendary collection, as we take you on a tour of Hôtel d’Orrouer and Le Jonchet, viewing the extraordinary art and objects in situ for a deeper appreciation of Givenchy’s art of living and how he lived with art.

Les deux ventes en ligne sont des ventes thématiques : la première est relative à l’Art de vivre à l’hôtel d’Orrouer, la seconde porte sur l’Art de recevoir au Manoir du Jonchet selon Hubert de Givenchy. On retrouve dans ces deux ventes des meubles, objets d’art et de décoration, de l’argenterie, de la porcelaine, des livres et des dessins & tableaux qui meublaient ces deux demeures historiques. Fidèle au goût Givenchy, ces vacations mélangent les styles et les époques et proposent de nombreux meubles de maisons d’édition de mobilier du XXe siècle telles que la Maison Jansen, la Maison Toulouse, David Hicks, la Maison Le Manach et la Maison Decour. Hubert de Givenchy affectionnait tout particulièrement le travail de ces maisons et ces designers contemporains dont on retrouve de nombreux exemplaires dans ces ventes online.
