Gustave Fayet and Japan

Highlight of the Fayet season in Béziers, this exhibition presents Gustave Fayet’s passion for Far Eastern art, the common thread running through his dual practice as both collector and artist. Through pieces from his collection of prints, lacquers, textiles, Buddhist sculptures, but also his own creations - ceramics, blotting-cloths, fabrics, carpets -, the visitor will discover the pronounced taste of Fayet for a colorful Japan to which he borrowed forms and patterns.
Exhibition curator: Stéphanie Trouvé, director of the Béziers Museums; Roxelane Cicekli, deputy director of the Béziers Museums; Lucie Chopard, doctor in art history; Olivier Schuwer, scientific coordinator of the Fayet season
Exhibition from June 19 to October 31, 2025
Opening from Tuesday to Saturday from 11am to 6pm
Entry price 3.50€ (reduced 2.50€)

Built in the 17th century and enlarged in the 19th century, the Hotel Fayet is one of the architectural jewels of Béziers. Attached to the family of Gustave Fayet, wealthy entrepreneur, collector and artist, the hotel was first an elegant bourgeois house, with a large artist’s studio, before being acquired by the city in 1966 and transformed into a museum in 1990\. It houses part of the remarkable fine art collections of the City, including the workshop collection of sculptor Jean-Antoine Injalbert (1845-1933), one of the most sought-after artists of his time. The collections of European painting include many masterpieces by Martin Schaffner and François Bunel le Jeune for the Renaissance, Dominiquin, Sébastien Bourdon, N.-Guy Brenet for the 17th and 18th centuries, Alexandre Cabanel, Eugène Delacroix, Théodore Géricault, for the 19th century, Raoul Dufy and Léopold Survage for the 20th century. The Museum has a rich cabinet of graphic arts.
