On the occasion of the 39th edition of the European Heritage Days, the Hôtel-Dieu Museum invites you to discover the works with your family!
Maximilien Luce is a painter who usually represents the world around him: his main subjects are the landscape and the daily activities of the people around him. But here’s the problem: he was born at a time when colors had disappeared ... the world was black and white!

Children 3-5 years (obligatory accompaniment)
