Thin 1980, Jean-Marie Desbordes inherited the collections of his godmother, Ébé Bugatti. Iris and Jean-Marie Desbordes, both teachers, had devoted their lives to the education of children. Thanks to their extreme generosity, Rembrandt Bugatti's works were given to the Réunion des musées nationaux or RMN (the public institution in charge of France's thirty-four national museums). Their donation, the only one of its kind in the world, would not have been possible without Anne Pingeot, curator of the department of sculpture at the Musée d'Orsay, whose help was invaluable. As the collection had been kept for years in a damp cellar, the plasters were subject to extensive restoration and reconstruction. Some were then given to modern art museums or those with collections of animalier art. The Musée d'Orsay retained approximately thirty plasters.
