02.    Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature 

Located in the heart of the Marais in Paris, the Museum of Hunting and Nature is one of the city’s best-kept hidden gems. Showcasing nature-inspired art and historical hunting objects, the museum has a whimsical atmosphere that evokes the forests and fairy tales of France’s rich landscapes.

Saint Clair Cemin’s designs play a major role in creating this distinctive visual environment. Commissioned by the museum in 2005, Cemin produced all of its decorative design elements — including chandeliers, sconces, railings, balustrades, and the legs of cabinets and closets on display. He also designed the large, wall-length bronze frescoes exhibited at the museum’s entrance and on the second floor. These bronze works echo the museum’s central themes of nature and animals, incorporating organic shapes and figurative motifs such as fauna, flora, and hunting gear. Together, these elements form an integral part of the museum’s distinctive aesthetic and immersive experience.
