Since July 14, 2024, the Army Museum in Paris has been hosting the permanent exhibition “L’Hôtel des Invalides: Between History and Memories.” For this prestigious installation, which spans over 350 years of the Hôtel des Invalides’ history, the museum called on the expertise of Bovis Fine Art for the transport and installation of the exhibited artworks. Thanks to its specialized skills in handling fragile and large-scale works, Bovis Fine Art ensured the success of this museum project.

Expert Handling for an Antique Model of the Hôtel des Invalides

Among the exhibition’s highlights, a very large model of the Hôtel des Invalides required special attention. This historical model, heavy and delicate, was delivered and installed by Bovis Fine Art’s specialized teams, equipped to handle the most fragile pieces. The precise and expert handling provided for this model guarantees its preservation and showcase within this must-see exhibition.

Unrolling and Installation of a Large Painted Canvas

The Bovis Fine Art team also managed the unrolling and installation of a large painted canvas, which had been stored on a roll prior to the exhibition. This complex operation required careful positioning of the canvas on its frame, a delicate step in presenting the artwork. Bovis Fine Art’s technical expertise in handling large-scale canvases allows visitors to fully appreciate this piece under optimal conditions.

Assembly of a Reliquary Display Case Dedicated to Napoleon I

Another notable task carried out by Bovis Fine Art for this exhibition was the assembly of a reliquary display case dedicated to Napoleon I. The display case, containing valuable historical objects and relics, was assembled and installed following strict museum conservation standards. This work highlights Bovis Fine Art’s skill in assembling and installing complex collection pieces.
