Musée Jules-Desbois, Art museum in Noyant-Villages, France
The Jules Desbois Museum displays one hundred sculptures and decorative art pieces created by the French artist throughout seven exhibition rooms.
Born in 1851 in Parçay-les-Pins, Jules Desbois trained at École des Beaux-Arts and later collaborated with Auguste Rodin at the Trocadéro workshop in 1884.
The museum exhibits various sculptures depicting human forms, mythological themes, and industrial decorative objects made from tin, bronze, silver, and ceramic materials.
The museum opens from Wednesday to Sunday between 14:30 and 18:00, with adult tickets priced at 6 euros and free entry for visitors under 18.
The collection includes works inspired by Alda Moreno, an Opera Comique dancer whose movements influenced Desbois' representation of human motion in sculptures.
