    Home of Georges Van Cuyl, Dutch gentleman charged by the Prince of Orange with the arming of the Castle of the hill. On the ground floor is evoked the ancient history of the city founded by the legionnaires of the second Gallic legion. Among the exceptional pieces, there are three cadastral plans engraved on marble and a part of the decoration of the façade of the Théâtre Antique including the centaur friezes deposited in 1996 and the magnificent acrotères found on the site of the necropolis of Fourchevielles. Upstairs, the Principality of Orange is evoked through the portraits of the Princes Orange-Nassau. The Wetter Paintings illustrate the making of paintings called Indian in the 18th century. Testimony of the history of the Provençal fabric: 5 large painted canvases of the 18th century illustrate the different stages of making and printing canvases called «Indian» from the Wetter factory installed in Orange in 1757, At that time it employed more than 500 workers. The Orange Indians had a reputation for quality throughout Europe. Discover the works of artists Belleroche and Brangwyn. In 1940, thanks to Edouard Daladier, the city received paintings by Albert de Belleroche and Franck Brangwyn of English origin. Art Nouveau enthusiast Franck Brangwyn owes his fame to the monumental decorations of the Rockfeller Center in New York and the House of Lords at the Palace of Westminster in London. Count Albert de Belleroche was born in 1864, he entered in 1882 in the studio of Carolus Duran where he met the painter John Singer Sergent, a portraitist appreciated by the worldly circles of the capital. He frequents Parisian cafés where he meets Emile Zola, Oscar Wilde, Renoir, Toulouse-Lautrec.
