Ary Scheffer en 2 minutes

Ary Scheffer (1795–1858) was a Dutch-born Romantic painter who became a central figure in Parisian artistic and cultural life during the July Monarchy. He was the official portraitist of the Orléans family and created deeply melancholic, spiritual works inspired by Dante, Goethe, and the Gospels. His studio at 16 rue Chaptal, in the Nouvelle Athènes district, hosted legendary Friday gatherings attended by Chopin, Liszt, George Sand, and Dickens, and now houses the Musée de la Vie romantique. Key works include *Le Dévouement patriotique des six Bourgeois de Calais* (1819) and *Les Femmes souliotes* (1827), both acquired by the French state.

Antoni Gaudí’s Casa Batlló is reaping the rewards from its continual reinvention

Antoni Gaudí’s Casa Batlló in Barcelona, completed in 1906 and designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2005, has undergone a series of ambitious multi-million-euro restorations and a hi-tech revamp over the past decade. Acquired by the Bernat family in 1993 and opened to the public in 2002, the monument now draws over 1.5 million visitors annually, generating a record €56 million in income in 2023—a 54% increase from the previous year. Recent projects include a €30 million investment (2018-2024) that uncovered original gold-leaf patterns and expanded immersive exhibitions such as Refik Anadol’s "Gaudí Dreams." The family plans to open the third floor for private events by late 2025.
