The Museum of Romantic Life is situated in a private mansion built in 1830 for one of these artists, a Dutch painter named Ary Scheffer. His circle of friends included Chopin, Lizst, Rossini, George Sand, Dickens, Turgenev, and Delacroix, to name a few.

Two leading figures of the day are highlighted – George Sand, the author; and Ernest Renan, related to Scheffer by marriage. The entire ground floor serves as a homage to Sand, the most popular author of her day in both France and England. Note!
