Since 2007, the foundation of public utility "Liège Patrimoine" has been working to promote, restore and extand Liège's heritage. For the objects of the Month of December, the Foundation lends us two exceptional works from the bequest of Mr Gérard Lefèvre in 2018.

This Object of the Month dedicated to the ceramics of the Linear Pottery culture is to be compared to the artifacts displayed in the exhibition Roots, the civilizations of the Lower Danube to be discovered at the Grand Curtius, from November 8, 2019 to April 26, 2020, within the framework of EUROPALIA ROMANIA.

The Object of the Month of September is a prestigious cup created in 1914, at the request of the City of Paris, by René Lalique.

This August’s month, the Grand Curtius highlights a processional banner from the rich textile collections of the religious art department depicting an agnus dei (Lamb of God).

The Object of the Month is a bronze and marble clock representing Napoleon on the eve of the Battle of Wagram (1809). The Emperor of the French, resting his feet on a roundshot surmounted by the imperial eagle, shows his superiority over his opponents while keeping a firm gasp on the world.

The Object of the Month is the Carcel lamp, highlighted by Philippe Deitz, Head of the Musée du Luminaire.
