The Musée de Picardie, located in Amiens, France, is one of the most significant provincial museums in the country. Established in 1867, the museum was among the first in France to be purpose-built as a museum, reflecting the 19th-century trend of creating dedicated spaces for the arts and sciences. The museum's architecture, designed by Henri Parent and Arthur-Stanislas Diet, is a fine example of Second Empire style, characterized by its grandiose and ornate features.

The museum's collection is extensive and diverse, spanning from prehistoric times to the contemporary period. It includes a wide array of artifacts, paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts. Among its notable holdings are works by renowned artists such as El Greco, Tiepolo, Corot, and Courbet. The museum also boasts an impressive collection of medieval and Renaissance art, as well as significant archaeological finds from the region.

One of the highlights of the Musée de Picardie is its collection of 19th-century French paintings, which includes works by prominent artists of the period. Among these is "Cliché H.Maertens (1863)" by Pierre Cecile Puvis de Chevannes. Puvis de Chevannes was a leading figure in the Symbolist movement and is celebrated for his large-scale mural paintings and his influence on modern art. His works are characterized by their serene and dreamlike quality, often depicting allegorical and mythological themes.

The museum underwent a major renovation and expansion project, completed in 2020, which modernized its facilities and enhanced its exhibition spaces.
