Musée national Jean-Jacques-Henner
43 avenue de Villiers 75017 Paris
Located in the district of the plain Monceau, the mansion which houses today the museum dedicated to the painter Jean-Jacques Henner (1829-1905) is originally the residence and workshop of Guillaume Dubufe (1853-1909). The building is remarkable for its decorations and architectural elements borrowed from different eras and civilizations. The collections of the museum trace, from his native Alsace to Paris where Jean-Jacques Henner made career, passing by the Villa Medici where he stayed after obtaining the Grand Prix de Rome de Peinture, the itinerary of an artist considered at the beginning of the twentieth century as one of the most important of his time.
