The virtual visit retraces a moment in the presentation

Those of you who are able to visit the exhibition will have the opportunity to discover that the presentation of the collection is changing! 

This virtual tour reflects the presentation of the permanent collection in October 2021.

Only part of the permanent collection is on display to the public, with the majority of works carefully preserved in the museum's reserves. The hanging of the collection has also been transformed by the desire to highlight coherent sets, recent acquisitions, or to evoke a historical fact or an artist.
