This house was bequeathed to the artist and his sister by their maternal uncle Michael Musson. The property was at one time held by Wm. Kenner, who was in New Orleans to assist Wm.C.C. Claiborne in the transfer of New Orleans and the Louisiana Purchase from French to American rule. Degas sold the house in 1866. It was designated a National Landmark by the Department of the Interior in 1978.
