About Musée Marmottan Monet
Originally the home of art historian Paul Marmottan, the museum opened in 1934. Monet's son Michel bequeathed his father's personal studio collection in 1966, transforming the institution into the principal Monet museum.
The collection includes Impression, Sunrise — the painting that gave Impressionism its name — alongside major works by Berthe Morisot.
