Joseph Pierre, born in

Dijon on January 1, 1824, died in Paris on November 22, 1910, is a master of

blacksmiths and a French politician. The son of Jean Hugues Magnin-Philippon,

he succeeded him as master of forges. He became a member of the Chamber of

Commerce and president of the Dijon Commercial Court. General councillor of the

Gold Coast in 1861 and councillor of Dijon in 1865, he was deputy of the Côte

d'Or from 1863 to 1876. A member of the government of National Defence the day

after the proclamation of the republic, he accepted the portfolio of

Agriculture and Trade, and the responsibility of supplying Paris. Charles

Rochat, in the communard newspaper Le Cri du Peuple, accused him on 7 April

1871 of having tolerated the sale of supplies to the Prussians in the middle of

paris. This information, as uncertain as it stands, would merit further

consideration. On December 16, 1875, the National Assembly eleged him as a

permanent senator. He became political director of the Century. On December 29,

1879, he became Minister of Finance in the first Freycinet cabinet. He fell

with the ministry on 22 September, but resumed his portfolio the next day in

the first Jules Ferry firm. Magnin left the Ministry of Finance when the

cabinet fell on November 13, 1881. He was appointed governor of the Bank of

France on 18 November 1881. He became vice-president of the Senate in 1884,

chairman of the army committee in 1889, and then of the finance committee in

1890. His children Jeanne and Maurice formed a collection of works of art,

which they installed in the Lantin Hotel, their home in Dijon, and which they

bequeathed to the state in 1938. It becomes the Magnin Museum, presented as an

amateur cabinet.
