The Theodor Aman Museum
The Theodor Aman Museum is one of the most beautiful private residences in Bucharest, built in the year 1868 according to Theodor Aman’s own designs. It is also one of the few buildings which has remained unchanged during its existence, and is the first workshop-residence in Romania.
From the architectural plans of the house and exterior decorations (done in colaboration with sculptor Karl Storck) to the interior design (mural paintings, stained glass, stucco ceilings, wooden panelling in the workshop, and the house’s furniture), all reflect Theodor Aman’s vision. The Theodor Aman Museum was opened in 1908 and is one of the oldest memorial museums in Romania. The house maintains its intimate atmosphere, gained during the belle-epoque period, and holds a large part of painter Theodor Aman’s works. |
