About the location

Musée des Beaux-Arts
40 place Saint-Corentin, 29000, Quimper
  • Finistère

Located at the heart of the cornouaillaise capital, facing the cathedral Saint-Corentin, the museum of the Fine Arts of Quimper was created in 1864 following the legacy agreed to its home town by the count Jean-Marie of Silguy of its remarkable collection of paintings(paints) and of drawings. The unique(only) requirement of the generous donor was that a museum is built to receive it. Built on the plans of the architect Joseph religious zealot, to which the arrows of the cathedral are also owed, the museum of Silguy is so inaugurated in 1872\. After a first renovation in 1976, the museum made the object from 1991 till 1993 of important works of extension and restructuring which allowed, besides the increase of the surfaces of exhibition(exposure) and the arrangement(development) of new reception centres(arrangements), to reconstruct according to its initial arrangement(disposal) the whole decoration(set) realised by Lemordant in 1905-1909 for the dining rooms of the hotel of Epée in Quimper. Enriched progressively by diverse gifts(donations), legacies, deposits(warehouses) and purchases, the museum of the Fine Arts of Quimper matters(counts) among the richest museums of Brittany and of province today. Outcome(Exit) for the main part of the fund(collection) of Silguy, the collection of old(former) paintings(paints) splits between the Schools of the North which train(form) a particularly rich and consistent set(group) (Van Haarlem, Rubens Van Mol, of Grebber), the less homogeneous but nevertheless high quality Italian School (Bartolo di Fredi, Dell' Abate, Guido Reni, Solimena) to whom(which) it agrees to add three heads - of work insulated of the Spanish School of the XVIIth and XVIIIth centuries and the School French, particularly rich for the XVIIIth and XIXth centuries (Butcher, Fragonard, Hubert Robert, Labille-Guiard, Meynier, Chassériau, Coburp, Sausage).
