Bourdelle Museum

"The tiny Bourdelle Museum was once the atelier and home of sculptor Antoine Bourdelle, whose monumental art deco masterpieces are a highlight ofthe Champs-Élysées Theater. The museum displays works the artist purchased for his own inspiration, as well as his own largest pieces in an airy, light-flooded hall, an open-air gallery, and a sculpture garden. In aworkshop area, the process of casting bronze sculptures is demonstrated. A tiny rose garden with lounge chairs providesa welcoming oasis to neighbors and visitors. This is the ideal museum for giving young children afirst taste of fine art and for those who like art in small doses."

In Defense of the Long-Distance Relationship

"Instead, I'd stroll over to the Antoine Bourdelle museum, or pop into a bakery and savor a flaky mille-feuille."
