The Jacquemart-Andr\u00e9 Museum is the place where two hearts in love came together, who loved not only each other but also art. This mansion belonged to a banker and an admirer of art. His wife was an accomplished artist who once painted salon portraits. <\/span><\/p>\n [toc]<\/p>\n <\/i> Address:<\/strong> 158 Boulevard Haussmann, Paris 75008<\/span><\/p>\n <\/i> Ticket price<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/i> Operating time<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The museum is open on weekends from 10:00 to 18:00. If temporary exhibitions are shown, it closes at 20:30 on Monday. <\/i> Additional information:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Children under 7 years old can visit the museum for free.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Everyone can take an audio guide who speaks 7 languages.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n Persons with disabilities may not pay for a ticket.

Here are the famous collections of world artists. But the attention is also attracted by the rich interior and the way of life led by the famous couple. <\/span><\/p>\n ***<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Sandro Botticelli’s “Madonna and Child.”<\/p><\/div>\n The paintings of Italian artists are presented in the “Italian Museum”. A huge hall displays famous paintings by artists and the most famous sculptures by the great sculptors of the time. <\/span><\/p>\n The Italian collection consists of 82 paintings from the 14th-15th centuries and 15 paintings from the 16th century. The sculptures of Renaissance masters are equally appealing. <\/span><\/p>\n Sandro Botticelli’s work “Madonna and Child” can be considered the most valuable exhibit of the museum.<\/span><\/p>\n There is an equally interesting painting in the Venetian Hall that deserves attention – it is Bellini’s Madonna and Child.<\/span><\/p>\n Famous works by Italian artists:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ***<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Paintings by Dutch artists are housed in the mansion’s former library.<\/span><\/p>\n Van Dyck<\/a> and Rembrandt<\/a> paintings can be scrutinized here. This room has a special charm due to the correctly arranged furniture and interior items. The books on the shelves do not let the sunlight in and create a shadow that makes you look at the great paintings in a different way. <\/span><\/p>\n Famous works by Dutch artists:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n ***<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Room No. 1 or the front chambers is the place to enjoy the works of French artists. Paintings by Jean-Marc Natier, Jean-Baptiste Chardin<\/a> are available for museum guests to view. <\/span><\/p>\n Pampaloni’s sculpture “Girl with Doves” is placed in the center of the hall.<\/span><\/p>\n Famous works by French artists:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n ***<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The works of English artists are in the ninth room. This was once the smoking room where men came to relax after a hearty meal. <\/span><\/p>\n The paintings here are many and are mostly 18th century English portraits. Famous paintings include the work of Joshua Reynold<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n Famous works by French artists:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Each room is a hall of representatives of one or another country. For example, in the informal quarters, where the couple liked to receive close friends and organize weekend get-togethers, three carpets decorated in the Slavic style are presented. <\/span><\/p>\n The furniture in this room is antique and dates back to the time of Louis XVI.<\/span><\/p>\n Winter Garden – Jacquemart-Andr\u00e9 Museum<\/p><\/div>\n The winter garden is no less beautiful. The famous architect Paran was in charge of furnishing this room. To achieve this result, he spent a lot of time, and the owners of the house a considerable amount of money. <\/span><\/p>\n Visitors to the museum are interested in the wall frescoes. The Italian artist Giovanni Battista Tiepolo worked on them. <\/span><\/p>\n The sculptures are also interesting. When you come here, you’re transported to an antique shop. Where every object holds a lot of secrets. And only exotic plants remind you that this is a winter garden. <\/span><\/p>\n There are also many paintings in the private chambers of the couple. Maurice Quentin de la Tour’s Portrait of a Man is one of the famous ones. <\/span><\/p>\n The walls are also decorated with family portraits, which were painted by the wife herself. The portrait of Eduard conveys all the love and warmth that Nelly felt for her husband. <\/span><\/p>\n The Jacquemart-Andr\u00e9 Museum is very different from other popular places in Paris. It is somehow family-oriented and every corner conceals family secrets. Probably that is why tourists from all over the world like to come here. There is no pompousness here and every object can be touched with your hands. <\/span><\/p>\n The dining room offers coffee and local scones.<\/span><\/p>\n Once upon a time there lived ordinary people who loved art and spent their whole lives buying paintings by artists and sculptures. The couple traveled a lot and brought back something special from each country. <\/span><\/p>\n E. Andr\u00e9 acquired his first painting in the 1860s. The collection grew every year. The banker acquired not only sculptures and paintings. He was also interested in exclusive wooden products. <\/span><\/p>\n When the couple was not at home, painters and sculptors worked in the mansion. They painted the walls and created murals. They still decorate the rooms of the mansion today. <\/span><\/p>\n Nelly Jacquemart did not stop and continued to expand the collection even after the death of her husband. She bequeathed the entire collection to the Institut de France. <\/span><\/p>\n The museum was opened in 1913.<\/span><\/p>\n There are a lot of museums in the French capital. It is not difficult to get there. If you are a connoisseur of art, you should definitely check out the Louvre<\/a><\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n Here you can get acquainted with great works of art by world artists and sculptors. Thousands of tourists come here to see the Mona Lisa and the Venus of Milossa. <\/span><\/p>\n The Salvador Dali Museum<\/a> is<\/strong> also worth a visit. Here you can admire the Catalan artist’s famous paintings and see the works he hid from outsiders.<\/span><\/p>\n The Dali Museum is not as huge as the Louvre, but the atmosphere is divine. The paintings and sculptures are arranged in such a way that visitors are transported into a surrealist world without noticing it and begin to understand the artist. <\/span><\/p>\n To better feel the atmosphere of Paris and immerse yourself in the world of French romance, book tours in<\/a> Russian at Metropol Voyage<\/a>. The Jacquemart-Andr\u00e9 Museum is the place where two hearts in love came together, who loved not only each other but also art. This mansion belonged to a banker and an admirer of art. His wife was an accomplished artist who once painted salon portraits.
