The centenary exhibition at the Musée Guimet from 7 June to 4 September 2023 outlines the relationship between the Musée Guimet and the Société des Amis, evoking some of its key figures: Sanskritist Émile Senart (1847-1928), financier David David-Weill (1871-1952), explorer and Tibetologist Jacques Bacot (1877-1965) and archaeologist and sinologist Paul Pelliot (1878-1945). It also highlights the high points of its role in supporting the institution: during the Second World War and during the unrest that plunged Cambodia into chaos (1970-1975). Since then, the SAMG has also spread, notably to the United States, with the American Friends of Guimet Museum, and as far afield as Hong Kong.
