The works in the Jules Cheret Fine Arts Museum
The museum mainly exhibits works from the 16th to the 20th centuries, with a few dating back to the 12th century.
There is therefore an illustration of the history of art to be discovered.
Among the major artists, in addition to those presented during temporary exhibitions, we note:
- Louis Brea (1450-c. 1525)
- Angelo di Cosimo, known as Bronzino (1503-1572)
- Jan Brueghel the Elder (1568-1625)
- Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806)
