Step inside, and walk the rooms of the Île-de-France.
Each room of the Île-de-France collection was designed around the work it was made to hold. Walk them here, within the House of Montague, one opening into the next — and for those who design or collect, each room keeps its study near: palette, material, and scale, set down in full. A house built around its art wears that grandeur lightly, and keeps the Île-de-France close — near the hearth, where a house becomes a home.
Nature's last gift, before her final exhale of gold.
Color rushes forward, brave and brief, and the world receives what it cannot keep. What burns brightest keeps the shortest hour, yet lingers like a whisper. Here, a room that presents this work carries the beauty of a Parisian autumn within it.

Autumn at the Eiffel Tower
Begin your own history with this Artwork.
Neptune reigns over water and symmetry folds into place.
At the foot of the gardens, Neptune rises from his own still water — the hedges holding their mirrored order behind him, swans gliding across a silver calm beneath a gathering sky. The god who commands the tides leaves these waters untroubled, and in that restraint his grandeur becomes something nearer to grace. A galerie that holds this work takes on the same composure.

The largest fountain at Versailles, and the story behind it.
Breathe in the rich, earthen air of the Girandole Grove.
The canopy gives its color to the earth one leaf at a time, and the path draws you to its center, where the season holds its deepest breath. Autumn blazes its brightest just before it rests, and nothing here is asked to hurry. A jardin d'hiver that holds this work keeps the last warm hour of autumn in it.

Radiant light catches the hour, and the hour holds forever.
Apollo and his legion rising from the water now, and forever more. Time itself frozen in pure radiance, and from it a sun that will not set. A sun-room that holds this work greets each beautiful day with Apollo.

The steed that carries the legend.
A noble steed carved in stone, set against nature's unrelenting drama beneath a moody Parisian sky. This is the side rarely studied—not the warrior's face, but the powerful horse that bears the myth, its arched neck and weathered flank holding the tension of a charged moment where strength and stillness collide in a display of Parisian grandeur. A parlour that holds this work holds authority in it.

Time turns gently here, and Saturn keeps every hour given.
The god of time reclines in the beautiful stillness of the gardens of Versailles. The day yields softly to evening, and evening asks only that you rest in the peaceful presence of Saturn. A chamber that holds this work bids farewell to each quiet hour in the company of time itself.

Discover the keeper of time, at rest in the gardens of Versailles.
Walk the charming streets of Montmartre.
Wisteria spills across white plaster and gathers at the blue shutters, as it has for a hundred springs on the Rue Gabrielle. Behind that door the day keeps a gentle rhythm — a window pushed open, linen hung to dry, the hill quiet above. A wash room that holds this work borrows a little of that Montmartre ease.
