Musée Jean-Jacques Henner

The building housing the Musee Jean-Jacques Henner stands as a rare surviving example of a nineteenth-century private mansion in Paris that is open to the public. Constructed in eighteen seventy-eight, it was originally the home and studio of the painter Guillaume Dubufe, a successful artist known for his massive decorative commissions. The structure itself is a work of art, featuring an eclectic interior design that blends Renaissance, North African, and Chinese influences, providing an intimate backdrop that remains largely unchanged from its time as a grand private residence.
