Musée Maillol

The Musée Maillol is a renowned art museum situated in the 7th arrondissement at 59–61, rue de Grenelle, Paris, France. Established in 1995 by Dina Vierny, the museum is dedicated to showcasing the works of Aristide Maillol, a celebrated French sculptor and artist. The museum is housed in the Bouchardon hotel, a mansion in Paris, and its renovation took over fifteen years. The museum offers a vast space of 4,250 m², featuring rooms dedicated to Maillol's works and permanent collections, as well as spaces for temporary exhibitions. The museum's collection includes Maillol's drawings, engravings, paintings, sculptures, decorative art, and original plaster and terracotta work. It also houses works from Vierny's private collection, including pieces by masters of French naïve art, drawings by Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, and others, paintings by Pierre Bonnard, and sculptures by Auguste Rodin, among others. Despite facing a crisis in 2015, the museum resumed its activities in 2016 and continues to operate under the management of Dina Vierny's heirs, with support from the Belgian cultural operator Tempora. The museum is open daily, including Tuesdays, and charges an admission fee.
