Verified profile

Since 1872, the Musée des beaux-arts de Quimper has been housed in the facade of a classical palace, on the square of the cathedral, in the heart of the charming and historic Quimper. Upon crossing the door, you will discover the interior architecture beautifully redesigned in 1993. This contemporary environment of wood and concrete houses a very fine collection of artworks, recognized as one of the most important among French regional museums. Dutch, Flemish, Italian, and French paintings from the 15th to the 19th centuries coexist with sculptures and decorative arts. The great names of art history resonate there: Rubens, Boucher, Fragonard, Rodin, Modigliani... Around a corner, it is possible to admire precious stones, including a specimen dating back to the time of the Mona Lisa. The uniqueness of the collection lies in the art in Brittany (legends, daily life, École de Pont-Aven, Nabis, Brittany in the 20th century).
