On 24 May 1884 an exhibition was opened at the Petit Gallery of Meissonier's collected works, including 146 examples. As president of the jury on painting at the Exhibition of 1889 he contributed some new pictures. In the following year the "New Salon" was formed (the "Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts"), and Meissonier became its president. He exhibited there in 1890 his painting "1807"; and in 1891, shortly after his death, his "Barricade" was displayed there.
