More than a thousand works
The Musée Bouchard was established in Bouchard's study after his death in 1960, and was opened to the public between 1962-2007. Its collections, including a large figure of Apollo, are shown at the Palais de Chaillot, and more than a thousand works of other sculptures of bronze, stone, plaster and original works were later transferred to La Piscine de Roubaix Museum. According to the museum's website, the study will reopen in 2012 with a reconstruction.
