Musée Jean

TIME : 2016/2/18 18:03:59

On Grasse's main pedestrian street, this small museum displays 10 major works by Grassois painter Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732–1806), beautifully exhibited in an 18th-century town house – admire the splendid ceiling fresco on the ground floor. Paintings by Marguerite Gérard (1761–1837), Fragonard’s sister-in-law and protégée, and Jean-Baptiste Mallet (1759–1835), another Grasse native, fill two other small rooms on the 1st floor.
