A bit of history :

VILLA AND GARDENS EPHRUSSI DE ROTHSCHILD
By her birth and then by her marriage, Madame Ephrussi was to become one of the greatest collectors of her century. For the construction of the Villa between 1907 and 1912, she enlisted the talents of all the experts and merchants, friends of the family...

Beatrice de Rothschild - the owner of this villa
Béatrice was born in 1864. She is the daughter of Baron Alphonse de Rothschild, regent of the Banque de France and great art collector, and Leonora, also a Rothschild, but from the English branch.

Béatrice de Rothschild lived in two of the most sumptuous residences of the time. In town, rue Saint-Florentin, at the corner of Place de la Concorde, in Paris, in a palace built in the 18th century and in the countryside, in Ferrières, in a huge castle built by his grandfather James.

Beatrice was not lacking in charm and intelligence. Dressed in 18th century-inspired dresses created by Jacques Doucet and headed by Caroline Reboux, she seemed to come straight out of a painting by Nicolas Lancret. She supported many charities, continuing a great family tradition.

I see the face of Mrs. Maurice Ephrussi, née de Rothschild, a face with fine features framed by silver hair. She was still dressed in Nattier blue, a ribbon of the same color holding back her curls, a little fox terrier lying at her feet. [...] Mrs. Ephrussi lived very simply in spite of her great fortune. It was rumored that she had a great concern for economy, however she sometimes invited her friends to lavish parties and I remember one summer night, when we had the privilege of seeing, in the gardens from her hotel designed in the French style, and bathed in moonlight, the Pavlova dances to Chopin's nocturnes.

André de Fouquières, columnist (My Paris and its Parisians, 1953)

At 19, Béatrice married Maurice Ephrussi, a Parisian banker from Russia 15 years her senior and friend of her parents. Their marriage was celebrated with pomp on June 6, 1883 at the synagogue on rue de la Victoire in Paris.

Le mariage tourne vite au désastre pour Béatrice, à qui Maurice transmet une maladie grave, ce qui l’empêchera d’avoir des enfants. Maurice est un flambeur et en 1904, ses dettes s'élèvent à plus de 12 millions de francs or. Inquiète pour l’avenir, la famille Rothschild décide de poursuivre Maurice devant les tribunaux. Ils se séparent en juin 1904, après 21 ans de mariage.

The marriage quickly turns into a disaster for Béatrice, to whom Maurice transmits a serious illness, which will prevent her from having children. Maurice was a gambler and in 1904 his debts amounted to more than 12 million gold francs. Worried about the future, the Rothschild family decides to take Maurice to court. They separated in June 1904, after 21 years of marriage.

Baroness Ephrussi de Rothschild has made her villa a collector's residence where porcelain, master paintings and furniture rub shoulders. She furnishes her villa in the most perfect Rothschild style, that is to say with the best of each era, even if the harmony is not always obvious!

1934 - Death of Beatrice
Suffering from tuberculosis, Béatrice retired to Davos in Switzerland where she died. One of her relatives will say that she "was still beautiful, with the snowy halo of her hair surrounding the deathly pallor of her face".

In 1933, a year before her death, Béatrice bequeathed her villa and all of her collections to the Academy of Fine Arts. The 7 hectares of land and some 5,000 works of art are thus given to them.
