Near the Luxembourg Garden, the Zadkine Museum occupies sculptor Ossip Zadkine’s house and studios. He lived here with painter Valentine Prax from 1928 to 1967. Sculptures and works on paper introduce his work in this setting in the sixth arrondissement. The garden extends the visit away from rue d’Assas.
