The Musée de l'Image Populaire - François Lotz is delighted to host an exceptional lecture by André Pierre Schmitt, artist and recognized specialist in painting under glass. This artistic discipline, both fascinating and little-known, marked the history of popular art, particularly between 1740 and 1860, before enjoying a new lease of life thanks to passionate artists.

Through a slideshow presentation, he will unveil works from regional and international museum collections. This visual exploration will provide a better understanding of the richness and diversity of glass painting across the ages and influences.
