Case : Tatiana Rachewskaia
Created by Constantin Brancusi in 1909, the sculpture "The Kiss" adorns the tomb of Tatiana Rachewskaia in Montparnasse cemetery in Paris. The French State listed the entire tomb as a historical monument in 2010 in order to prevent the young woman's descendants from removing and selling the statue. This decision, challenged by the family, has now been confirmed by the Conseil d'État. The sculpture was purchased for the sole purpose of being affixed to the young woman's grave, thereby forming one single funeral monument. As such, this monument must be considered as a "building" as defined by law, meaning it can be classified by the State as a historic monument without the authorisation of its owners.

"Fernand Léger s'amusait parfois à dire : "Si tous les cons fleurissaient, ça ferait un beau bouquet"."...Mais on en a assez de voir Utrillo à côté de son litre, Rodin coursant des donzelles dans son parc, Rousseau naïf jusqu'à la bêtise, Gauguin aux prises avec les gendarmes, Cézanne injurié par la presse. Si on parlait un peu de leur oeuvre? ". ...à propos de la notion d'artistes "maudits"
