Founded in 1860 as the Art Association of Montreal by a group of Montreal collectors and patrons, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts was one of the first museum institutions in North America to form an encyclopaedic collection worthy of the name. The latter has more than 43,000 works, from antiquity to the present day, making it unique in Canada. It includes paintings, sculptures, graphic works, photographs and decorative arts objects, displayed in four pavilions: Jean-Noël Desmarais Pavilion (international art), Michal Pavilion and Renata Hornstein (world cultures), Liliane and David M. Stewart Pavilion (decorative arts and design) and Claire and Marc Bourgie Pavilion (Quebec and Canadian art). The latter was inaugurated in September 2011 and has a 460-seat concert hall - the Bourgie Hall - with a rare collection of Tiffany stained glass windows. A fifth pavilion dedicated to international art and education was inaugurated in November 2016 to launch Montreal's 375th anniversary, the Michal Peace Pavilion and Renata Hornstein.
