Musée Jacquemart-André
Édouard André, heir to a banking family, and his wife, the portraitist Nélie Jacquemart, had this mansion built on Boulevard Haussmann between 1869 and 1875 to display the collections they gathered on travels in Italy and the East.
Inside are works by Botticelli, Uccello, Mantegna, Rembrandt, Van Dyck and Fragonard, in an intact domestic setting: winter garden, double-revolution staircase, smoking room, and a Tiepolo ceiling brought from a Venetian villa. Tip: book a time slot, as the house is small; the tearoom in the former dining room is worth the stop.
