Musée Jean-Jacques Henner

The Musée Jean-Jacques Henner in Paris's 17th arrondissement is an art museum housed in a townhouse with an artist's studio, built in 1878. Originally intended for the painter Guillaume Dubufe, the building was purchased in 1921 by one of Henner's nieces and, after renovations, opened as a museum in 1924. Today it is part of the French national museums. The seven exhibition rooms display more than 500 paintings and over 1,000 drawings by the artist, covering his entire career. The collection is complemented by personal belongings, diaries, and sketchbooks that illustrate his creative process. You can also see works by other artists, such as Corot and Monticelli.
