Paris’s other museum, the Musée d’Orsay is the perfect complement to the Louvre. Join our guides on a tour through this converted, century-old train station and explore the artistic movements that led up to the Impressionists and their vibrant, colorful works. Visit Manet’s scandalous “Luncheon on the Grass” and Renoir’s “Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette." We’ll discuss those who preceded the Impressionists like Millet and “The Gleaners” as well as those who followed like Van Gogh, as visible in his “Bedroom in Arles.” And of course we’ll check out works by Monet himself, including his famous poppies.

Learn about the evolutions and personalities that went into creating this movement and understand why these seemingly simple works were so revolutionary at the time.
