Skip right past the long entrance lines and follow your expert guide into a world of color and light. Does that painting look familiar? It’s no surprise. The Orsay Museum is home to an incredibly famous and highly recognizable collection of masterpieces. In fact, the Museum is home to the largest collection of Impressionist paintings in the world! With the help of your guide, you’ll discover this unique period in the history of art, how it was harshly criticized in its time and how painters such as Monet radically changed the way we view and depict the world. Your guide, whose second home is this incredible museum, will ensure you get close enough to see the individual brushstrokes that are so characteristic of these paintings.
The Parisians have another good reason to favor the Orsay Museum. The Orsay is first and foremost a French museum, and many of its most famous works are by French and Paris-based artists, or depicting scenes throughout France. Even though Van Gogh was certainly Dutch, we’ll see his famous Starry Night over the Rhône: a representation of the French city of Arles. The Orsay is also the proud home of Renoir’s Impressionist masterpiece Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette, a depiction of a typical Sunday afternoon in the Parisian district of Montmarte. Your guide will transport you into Renoir’s 19th century Paris, where his dancing, drinking Parisians eating galettes will seem to come to life before you.
Take a hint from the locals: the Musée d’Orsay can’t be missed. There is no better way to experience Paris’s favorite museum than through the eyes of our local guide who is eager to share his enthusiasm and knowledge on our Skip the Line: Musée d’Orsay Highlights tour.
