- Along the LouvreBy Antoine BlanchardLocated in Missouri, MOAntoine Blanchard (French, 1910-1988) "Along the Louvre" Oil on Canvas Signed Lower Right approx 18 x 22 inches (site) approx. 26.5 x 30 inches (framed) Notes on the Authentication of Antoine Blanchard’s Paintings: The vast majority of Blanchard’s paintings were smaller works, which were sent to the United States in tubes and stretched and framed by the galleries that sold them.

The first way to assess the authenticity of a Blanchard...Category
