Musee Bourdelle Overview:
Dedicated to Emile-Antoine Bourdelle, the French sculptor, painter and photographer who worked during the late 19th century until his death in 1929, the Musee Bourdelle features numerous works from the artist, including sculptures, photography and drawings. The museum also examines Bourdelle's artistic influences and collaborations through his personal collection: works from the likes of Auguste Rodin and Delacroix, in addition to copies of Greek and medieval sculptures, demonstrate the artists' myriad influences. The sculpture garden is especially pleasant. Entry to the permanent collection is free.
