## About Musée Picasso Paris
The Musée National Picasso-Paris is uniquely situated in the Hôtel Salé, widely considered one of the most extravagant 'hôtels particuliers' or grand townhouses of the 17th century. Built between 1656 and 1659 for Pierre Aubert de Fontenay, a wealthy tax collector, the building's nickname 'Salé' (salted) refers to his role in collecting the 'gabelle' or salt tax. The mansion's Baroque architecture provides a dramatic, classical backdrop to the avant-garde works of the 20th century. The museum's existence is a direct result of a unique Japanese-style inheritance tax law in France. Following Pablo Picasso's death in 1973, his heirs donated an immense portion of his work to the French state in lieu of inheritance taxes. This 'dation' ensured that the collection remained intact, representing every phase of the artist's prolific career rather than being scattered across private auctions. Inside, the museography is designed to lead visitors through Picasso’s artistic metamorphosis. The collection spans his early Blue and Rose periods, the groundbreaking years of Cubism, his neoclassical turn in the 1920s, and the raw, expressive works created during the occupation of Paris. The displays also feature his sculptures, ceramics, and even the sketches that preceded his greatest canvases. Beyond his own work, the museum holds Picasso’s private collection of other masters. This includes significant pieces by Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, and Henri Rousseau, offering a rare glimpse into the influences and rivalries that shaped the modern art movement. After a comprehensive five-year renovation ending in 2014, the museum now offers double the exhibition space and a refined layout by Diego Giacometti.

## History
The story of the Musée Picasso Paris is intrinsically linked to the artist's life and the French legal system. Upon Picasso's death in 1973, he left behind an astounding number of artworks, which, under French law, were subject to substantial inheritance taxes. In a unique agreement known as 'dation en paiement,' his heirs offered a significant portion of his personal collection to the French state in lieu of monetary payment. This extraordinary acquisition formed the core of what would become the Musée Picasso.
The search for a suitable home for this immense treasure began, and the majestic Hôtel Salé, located in the historic Marais district, was chosen. Built between 1656 and 1659 for Pierre Aubert de Fontenay, a salt tax collector (hence 'Salé', meaning 'salted'), the mansion itself has a rich history, having served various purposes from a private residence to a school and even a bronze foundry. Its opulent Baroque architecture, with grand staircases, intricate carvings, and vast spaces, provided the perfect setting to showcase Picasso's diverse oeuvre.
After extensive renovation work by architect Roland Simounet, which sensitively integrated modern museum facilities within the historic structure, the Musée Picasso officially opened its doors to the public in 1985. A second major renovation took place between 2009 and 2014, expanding exhibition spaces and improving visitor services, solidifying its status as a world-leading institution dedicated to Picasso.
