Visite guidée en anglais / English Guided Tour
History of a Collection, a Home, a Collector

Essentially featuring the decorative arts of the 18th Century, the collection of Moise de Camondo still occupies the building designed to house it and the collector’s family. This visit delves into the two periods united here under one roof: the Ancien Régime of the count’s collection, and the modern bourgeois lifestyle of Camondo and his family in Paris of the 1920s.

Histoire d'une collection, demeure d'un collectionneur

Essentiellement orientée vers l’art décoratif du XVIIIe siècle, la collection de Moïse de Camondo occupe la demeure construite par lui pour l’accueillir tout autant que pour y vivre en famille. Deux styles de vie réunis en un même lieu sont à découvrir lors de la visite : l’art de vivre à la française de l’Ancien Régime et la vie moderne bourgeoise de l’entre-deux-guerres.

In the Company of Pierre Godefin, Count Moïse de Camondo’s Butler
This visit winds through the service quarters and reception rooms of the Musée Nissim de Camondo, as visitors follow in the footsteps of Pierre Godefin as he prepares for a reception that took place Tuesday the 3rd of June 1930. The butler announces the menu for the luncheon to the kitchen, then pulls the public along to help get everything ready for the event. A step back in time and an exceptional moment shared by the group.
