Hiramatsu, le bassin aux nymphéas. Hommage à Monet

An architectural masterpiece famous around the world, Garnier's Opéra was the thirteenth opera house in Paris since this institution was founded in 1669 by Louis XIV. The construction was decided by Napoléon III as part of the renovation of the capital city conducted under his authority by the Baron Haussmann. A competition was organised to choose the architect who would design it and Charles Garnier was the winner. The construction went on for fifteen years, from 1860 to 1875, interrupted by many events including the 1870 war with Prussia, the fall of the imperial regime and the Paris Commune. It was eventually inaugurated on 5 January 1875.

Housed in a recently restored 19th-Century hôtel particulier, the museum is devoted to the works of Jean-Jacques Henner (1829-1905). From his native Alsace to Paris, where he pursued his career, including a stay at the Villa Médicis following his being awarded the Prix de Rome, the collections retrace the itinerary of an artist considered at the beginning of the 20th Century as one of the most important in his time. With many pieces from Henner's studio, they give a better understanding of the way an "official" artist worked in the time of Impressionism.

Member offer: Reduced rate on the permanent collection admission ticket and cultural activities of the Musée Henner (except single price events).
