Fondation Baur (Baur Foundation)
Fondation Baur (Baur Foundation) Review
Alfred Baur's lovingly preserved collection of Far East Asian art, Switzerland's largest, packs more than 10 centuries of Chinese ceramics and jade, Japanese smoking paraphernalia, prints, netsuke, lacquerware, and sword fittings into a tranquil 19th-century townhouse on the edge of the Vieille Ville. Thematic temporary exhibits occupy the basement; general texts in English introduce each room.
