Fun fact: Hugo and I share the same birthday 🎂, so I totally get his boundless imagination, creativity, romanticism, and deep compassion. This house-museum holds a collection of Hugo’s personal belongings, from furniture and artworks to his poetry, books, manuscripts, and more. It’s like taking a walk through Hugo’s life! 🖋️📚 Early Inspirations: At the age of 9, Hugo saw a stunningly intricate vase in a Spanish palace, sparking his lifelong love for the country. 🇪🇸 Art & Culture: Hugo explored ink painting techniques and even experimented with using coffee stains as a medium, showing his deep dive into the world of culture and artistic expression 🎨☕️. Home Life & Décor: After marriage, Hugo curated a home full of eclectic elements, buying 48 pieces of art, including porcelain and Buddha statues. His living room was filled with these items, and one wall alone, adorned with blue-and-white porcelain, cost over 3,000 francs! This demonstrates his deep appreciation and passion for art 🏺🖼️. #ParisMuseums #VictorHugoHouse #ParisExplorations
