The Palais du Luxembourg is built for Marie de Médicis by the architect Salomon de Brosse. His design includes two galleries to hold a cycle of 24 paintings by Rubens glorifying the queen. The building that houses the museum today is constructed by the Senate. It is bequeathed a collection by Caillebotte. Picasso, Pissaro, Bonnard, Degas, Gauguin, and Renoir were exhibited until 1937, when the collections were then transferred to the new modern art museum. Under the management of the Culture Ministry, the Museum became a gallery for exhibitions devoted to presenting the artistic heritage of the regions of France.
