The Jacquemart André Museum in Paris

Описание: Take a tour with the music of Chevalier de Saint-Georges though the private museum of Musée Jacquemart-André. It was created from the private home of Édouard André (1833–1894) and Nélie Jacquemart (1841–1912) to display the art they collected during their lives.

The State Apartments The State Rooms were designed by the Andrés for their most formal receptions. They reflect their fascination for the French school of painting and 18th century decorative art.

The informal Apartments The Andrés would receive their business relations in a series of smaller, more informal salons. These were decorated in a refined style, testifying to their talents as collectors.
The winter garden The Winter Garden is remarkable on more than one count and testifies the artistic skill of the architect Henri Parent, who was seeking to surpass Charles Garnier, the builder of the then new Opéra Garnier.

The Italian museum The Sculpture Gallery houses collections of 15th- and 16th-century Italian sculpture, with masterpieces by Francesco Laurana, Donatello, Luca Della Robbia and others. The Florentine Gallery is both a place of worship, containing works on religious themes — choir stalls, reredos and funerary monuments — and a picture gallery focusing on the Florentine school, with works by Botticelli, Francesco Botticini, Perugino, and Ucello's celebrated St George and the Dragon. The Venetian Gallery attests to the Andrés' love of 15th-century Venetian artists. Dominated by a coffer ceiling attributed to Mocetto, paintings by Mantegna, Bellini or Carpaccio recreate the typical setting of a Venetian Palazzo.

The Private Apartments occupies part of the mansion's ground floor. The Andrés' private apartments give the museum the feel of a family home.
