Alfred-Emmanuel Beurdeley (1847-1919) was an important collector of art and prints, from a dynasty of antique dealers and cabinetmakers based at the Pavillon de Hanovre on the Boulevard des Italiens. Alfred-Emmanuel Beurdeley's art collection consisted of more than 28,000 prints. He sold his collection of architectural and ornamental drawings and the Central Academy of Technical Drawing of Baron Stieglitz in St. Petersburg acquired them. After the revolution of 1917, this collection became part of the Hermitage Museum.
