In the heart of the old village of Mougins, discover how the beauty of the ancient world has influenced neoclassical, modern and contemporary art.
The museum's large and diverse collection of antiquities includes Roman, Greek and Egyptian sculpture, vases, coins and jewellery and also the world's largest private collection of ancient arms and armour.
These ancient artefacts are cleverly combined with a hundred classically inspired paintings, drawings, and sculptures by artists such as Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Dufy, Cézanne, Rodin, Dali, Andy Warhol, Marc Quinn, Antony Gormley, and Damien Hirst.
Christian Levett, a British investment manager with a passion for ancient art founded the museum in 2008, when he decided to display his collection in Mougins, where he has a family home.
