About the Musée d’Orsay

The Musée d’Orsay is one of the main artistic centers of Paris and an international reference for the art of the 19th century. Located in the former Gare d’Orsay, an elegant railway station inaugurated in 1900, the building was transformed into a museum in 1986. Its collection focuses on the period between 1848 and 1914, a key moment in which artistic movements that marked the beginning of modern art emerged.

What to see during the visit

During the audio guide tour, visitors are free to explore the galleries and learn about key works of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. Among the artists represented are Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas and Vincent van Gogh. The museum also houses sculptures by Auguste Rodin and numerous pieces of decorative arts, offering a complete vision of the artistic creativity of the late 19th century.

“Drawing is the sincerity of art.” – Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres

Curiosities

  • The museum building retains much of the original structure of the train station, including its impressive central nave covered by a large glass and metal vault.
  • Many of the Impressionist works that are considered masterpieces today were rejected at the time by the accredited art salons of France.
  • The Musée d’Orsay was created to bring together the art collections that connect the classical period of the Louvre Museum with the avant-garde of the Pompidou Center, thus completing the evolution of art in Paris.
