The Louvre's curator Nicolas Milovanovic has shared news that the museum has acquired Pierre Puget's The Head of St John the Baptist. Although Puget is more widely known as a sculptor, this rare example of him working in oils had recently been with the dealers H. W. Fichter Kunsthandel of Frankfurt (according to a Google search).
