| Paris is known for its greatest museums such as the Louvre museum, the Pompidou Center, the City of Sciences and Industry or the Louis Vuitton Foundation. We take you in the heart of this blog to 3 Parisian museums: the Rodin museum, the d’Orsay museum and the Orangery museum. |

| The Musée d’Orsay is indeed the most famous museum in the world for its collection of Impressionist works. It is a former train station inaugurated for the Universal Exhibition of 1900. Now it is one of the largest museums in Europe.

| In 2023, you can attend many temporary exhibitions like Manet / Degas exhibition, Claude Rutault, Louis Janmot, Van Gogh in Auvers-sur-Oise. The “Degas / Manet” exhibition is truly exceptional for Impressionist lovers. The rivalry between the two painters is as famous as their talent! Edouard Manet and Edgar Degas both played a central role in the new painting of the 1860s-80s. This exhibition, which brings the two painters together in light of their contrasts, forces a new look at their true connection. It shows the heterogeneous and conflicting character of pictorial modernity and reveals the value of Degas’s collection, in which Manet became more prominent after his death.
