Painting and Sculpture
Henry Vasnier (1832–1907), born April 28, 1832, in Paris and died February 28, 1907, in Reims (Marne), was a wine merchant associated with the Maison Veuve Pommery, fils et Cie. A major collector at the end of the 19th century, he bequeathed his works to the city of Reims on his death in 1907, considerably enriching its collections and forming the core of the future Musée des Beaux-Arts.
