Musée des Années Trente
Summary
A delightful virtual tour of the little visited Museum of the Thirties at Boulogne-Billancourt on the outskirts of Paris, revealing a rich and fascinating collection of fine and decorative arts from between the wars. Particularly moving is the section devoted to the École de Paris with the work of many Jewish artists who died or were persecuted during the German Occupation of France.
