And in the meantime some smaller museums will be opening in Paris on June 16: Maison de Balzac in the 16 th arrondissement, has just been entirely remodeled with a pretty Rose Bakery tea room overlooking the Eiffel Tower from its large garden. At the moment an exhibition of Spanish painter Eduardo Arroyo (1937-2018), one of the founders of Narrative Figuration, is entirely dedicated to Balzac’s works and legacy. It adds to the already charming premises, where you can discover Balzac’s desk, sculptures, portraits and numerous engravings of La Comédie humaine.
