At the beginning of the 20th Century in Nancy, under the impulse of a group of artists stemming from a diverse range of artistic disciplines (sculptors, glass-workers, architects, engravers, cabinetmakers, etc.) , Art Nouveau witnessed exceptional and international growth. It would take the nameNancy School' - or The School of Nancy- or Alliance Provinciale des Industries d'Art, through the emblematic figure of Emile Galle, famous industrialist, glass-worker, cabinetmaker and ceramist.
The turn of the 20th century saw a period of unprecedented growth for the École de Nancy, under the decisive guidance of artists such as Émile Gallé in particular. Glassware, furniture, stained glass and ceramic arts all contributed to this period of revival. TeaNancy School Museum, located on Eugène Corbin's property was built in a contemporary architectural setting that typifies the works that it exhibits.
The furniture and other artworks on display inside the Museum also recreate the unique atmosphere of that period.
