Opening of the Picasso Museum Paris (Musée national Picasso Paris), located in the Marais Quarter. Paris 1985.

The sunlit façade of the Musée national Picasso-Paris, photographed for its 1985 opening in the Marais Quarter. Housed in a grand *hôtel particulier*, the ornate stone building is viewed from across its courtyard. A distinctive slate mansard roof crowns the symmetrical structure, which features rows of French windows with wrought-iron balconettes and an elaborately carved central pediment. A lone figure in a doorway below lends a sense of scale to the magnificent architecture.
