It was in 1919 that Marie Grobet, née Labadié, bequeathed to the City of Marseille the beautiful mansion of her family and all the collections it housed, constituted for several decades. The collections that can be admired here illustrate admirably the artistic eclecticism of a family of "enlightened" amateurs of that time. They reflect the tastes of a refined bourgeois society, seduced by all forms of art and constitute groups of works of primary importance: reception pieces and furniture of the eighteenth century, floors of life and paintings, sculptures, ceramics, furniture, tapestry, collection of musical instruments, stained glass windows, etc. Although the eighteenth century occupies a privileged place within the collections, with notably the Louis XV Salon, the High Middle Ages, the Renaissance and the nineteenth century nevertheless remain represented with ensembles formed by works of prime importance.
