Fondation Schleich-Lentz
The painting was found when the house was being cleaned out before being renovated and turned into student housing for the University of Luxembourg. Mrs Antoinette Schleich-Lentz created the Fondation Schleich-Lentz in 2015 under the aegis of Fondation de Luxembourg. It was created as a dormant foundation which only became active after she passed away in 2016.
Mrs Antoinette Schleich-Lentz came from a very artistic family and her home was full of art, all of which was donated when she died. Most of the art was either created by herself or by her father, Corneille Lentz. Two of the paintings that were discovered in the house received particular attention. Lentz’s painting Adam and Eve was displayed at the Villa Vauban on the occasion of the “Plakeg!” exhibition and his painting La Kermesse “Schueberfouer” à Luxembourg, illustrating Luxembourg’s beloved Schueberfouer approximately 100 years ago, has been put on display in the Luxembourg City Museum.
