The Getty Project for the Study of Collecting and Provenance (PSCP) is collaborating with the Institut national d'histoire de l'art (INHA) to provide worldwide access through the Getty Provenance Index databases to French art sales catalogues from 1611 to 1800 housed mainly in Paris at the Bibliothèque de l'Institut national d'histoire de l'art and the Bibliothèque nationale as well as in Netherlands at the Rijksbureau voor Kunsthistorische Documentatie in The Hague and in the United States at the Frick Art Library. This collaboration implies the input, index and authority work of all the French sales catalogues from 1611 to 1800. It aims to offer a study on the art market, the taste, the collectors, the dealers in France at this time, reconstructing the development and movement of the collections and the provenance of works of art. The project is currently focusing on the period 1780-1790. In France, this project is managed by Marion Boudon-Machuel. In 2007, Guillaume Glorieux and Patrick Michel supervised two teams of contributors based in Clermont-Ferrand and Lille. The contributors in the project were Constance Bienaimé, Isabelle Decobecq, Ludovic Demathieu, Damien Guyot, Nathalie Lallemand-Buyssens, Adeline Lamy and Hééne Sécherre.
