This extensive museum was established in 1794, stocking artwork confiscated from churches. It later came to house the private collection of Christophe-Paul de Robien (1698–1756), a president of the Parlement de Bretagne. Its highlights are its 17th century paintings, and works of the Pont-Aven school led by Gauguin.
The Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rennes is a municipal museum of fine arts in the French city of Rennes, the capital of Brittany. Its collections range from ancient Egyptian antiquities to modern art and make the museum one of the most important in France outside Paris, notably for its holdings of paintings and drawings.
