description In the late 19th century, Bordeaux had two collections of plaster casts: one at the University, the other at the Municipal School of Fine Arts and Decorative Arts. These collections, which were built and developed thanks to the dynamism of local elites and the support of the Ministry of Public Education, were a fundamental part of scientific (archaeology and art history) and artistic education. Between 1896 and 1898, the connections between the two institutions strengthened. Academics were increasingly involved in the management of the Municipal School’s administration. Finally, Pierre Paris, professor of Archaeology and Art History at the University, became the Municipal School’s headmaster in 1898. It is in this context that an ambitious and original project emerged across the French territory: to create an Institute of Art and Archaeology meant to make students (University) and artists (Municipal School) work together. The present paper aims to review the history of this project and its failure.
