Who was Félix-Sébastien Feuillet de Conches?

Félix-Sébastien Feuillet de Conches was a French diplomat, journalist, writer and collector. Having occupied the posts of 'introducteur des ambassadeurs' and head of protocol at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he was able to form a collection specialising in English painting, 19th century French painting, the history of civilisations, the art of the Near East and the art of Asia. His contemporary Charles Monselet judged de Conches' collection as unequalled, but it included some pieces of dubious authenticity.
