You're standing at the Musée de la Vie romantique, the Museum of Romantic Life. You're at the foot of Montmartre hill, on the rue Chaptal in the ninth arrondissement. When this house went up, this spot was still on the edge of the city. Today you're right in the middle of Paris, yet it still feels like a quiet corner.
