Museum dedicated to the Romantic movement reopens in Paris on Valentine’s Day

The Musée de la Vie romantique in Paris has reopened on February 14th following a €3.8 million renovation. The project, funded by the City of Paris and private donors, restored the 19th-century building—once the home and studio of painter Ary Scheffer—focusing on its timber framework, roof, and façades using traditional techniques. The museum's exhibition has been completely renewed, featuring 300 works from its collection, including 70 recently restored pieces, and incorporates new multimedia elements to immerse visitors in the Romantic period.
