Countess Rosario Zoubov (1892-1984) bequeathed her collection to the State of Geneva, in memory of her daughter Tatiana, who died tragically in 1957. The collection is managed by a foundation, and is housed on the first floor of the Hôtel de Sellon, a magnificent mansion built in the heart of Geneva's old town between 1720 and 1723. 2 rue des Granges was once a prestigious address, frequented by leading figures from the aristocracy and bourgeoisie (Camille de Cavour, Théodore Turrettini, Franz Liszt). Today, the salons welcome distinguished guests from the Geneva government for official receptions, as well as visitors interested in discovering a decorative layout unique to Geneva. Throughout the apartment-museum: European paintings from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, stamped furniture, Western and Chinese decorative arts (including a monumental Qing Dynasty incense burner, and delicate Canton enamels)...
