Over the years, the town of Bourg-la-Reine has endeavoured to gather works that bear witness to the variety of the production of ceramicist Pierre-Adrien Dalpayrat (1844-1910): the collection, rich in more than one hundred and twenty pieces, is presented in a part of the house where the artist lived. It is here that the artist has developed his famous "Rouge Dalpayrat", a technique that gives his burnt sandstone a blood-of-beef tint. A permanent exhibition dealing with the influence of Art Nouveau on his work, the inventiveness of forms and his work on matter, the development of the "Rouge Dalpayrat" and the ceramic tradition in Bourg-la-Reine, accompanies the visit.
