The Musée du Luxembourg, located in the heart of Paris, is one of the city's most prestigious exhibition spaces, known for its diverse and ambitious programming. Established as France's first public museum in 1750, it originally housed works from the Royal Collection and featured artists like Rubens, Veronese, and Raphael. Later in the 19th century, it became a museum of contemporary art, showcasing works by David, Ingres, Delacroix, and others. The museum played an essential role in the early promotion of Impressionism, with exhibitions that included works by Manet, Monet, and Renoir.

The Musée du Luxembourg was reopened in 1979 after being closed for several decades and today focuses on presenting two major exhibitions each year. These exhibitions often explore themes related to modernity, women artists, and the Renaissance, reflecting the museum’s goal of fostering public engagement with art and culture. The museum is managed by the Senate, which has delegated its operations to the Réunion des Musées Nationaux - Grand Palais since 2010 to ensure a high level of quality in exhibition production.

Visitors can enjoy not only the temporary exhibits but also the charming Mademoiselle Angelina Tea Room, which remains open even when the museum is between exhibitions. The tea room offers a quaint space for relaxation amidst the artistic atmosphere of the museum.
