In 1931, the Musée des Beaux-Arts moved into a beautiful 1866 Roussel-Defontaine town house, representative of the architecture in vogue under Napoleon III. In 2009, following an exceptional donation of more than 600 works by Tourcoing-born Eugène Leroy, the museum became the MUba Eugène Leroy. It presents its collections through a constant dialogue between classical, modern and contemporary art. Paintings, drawings and sculptures come together to form a thematic trail that takes us face to face with Louis-Léopold Boilly, Rembrandt and Théodore Rombouts, the contemporaries Felten-Massinger, Antoine Petitprez and Philippe Cazal, and twentieth-century figures such as Martin Barré and Jean Fautrier. The permanent collections occupy half of the exhibition space. They are regularly renewed to reflect the major temporary exhibitions scheduled two or three times a year.
