Housed in Dommartin-le-Franc in the buildings of a foundry closed in 1992, the Conservatoire des arts de la métallurgie (Conservatory of Metallurgic Arts) exhibits over 600 artistic models from the Ferry-Capitain collection. There are three types of work: the model, the master model and the reproduction. Cast between two plaster shells, the statue in cast iron faithfully reproduced the original. Founders enriched their collections at the Salons by ordering models from prize-winning sculptors. The Conservatory’s “Paradise” models allow us to explore religious and secular sculpture from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
