Guimet National Museum of Asian Arts
Guimet National Museum of Asian Art , Paris, France The Guimet Museum of Asian Art, in Paris, was the brain-child of Emile Guimet, a Lyons industrialist who devised the great project of opening a museum devoted to the religions of Ancient Egypt, Classical Antiquity, and Asia. Guimet visited Egypt and Greece in 1876, stopping off in Japan, China and India. In the course of his travels he acquired extensive collections of objects which he put on display in a museum opened in Lyon in 1879.
