Mes Binoche et Godeau, Succession of Mr. Ambassador and Mrs. Henri Hoppenot, 9 April 1991
Note: Henri Hoppenot (1891-1977) served as the secretary at the French legation in Beijing from 1933 to 1937. He was considered, to those who knew him, a particularly courteous and cultured man, "(who had) a passion for art and literature, and an almost religious devotion to culture." He was a great art connoisseur in his own right, and as seen in the sale of his private collection on 9 April 1991 by Parisian auction house Binoche et Godeau, his interest in culture spanned a wide range of subjects from the works of Picasso and Modigliani to sculptures by Alexander Calder to Far Eastern paintings and works of art.
