* The Orsay Museum is one of the most unusual and most beautiful museums in the world! It is located on the left bank of the Seine, in the very center of Paris and occupies the building of the former railway station, built in the luxurious style of the Belle Epoque for the Universal World Exhibition of 1900. When you get into it, you get the impression that you are not in a museum at all, but in some kind of luxurious, bright, huge lobby where you want to walk and enjoy art. Orsay houses the richest collection of works by masters of all styles and trends of the second half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as well as a large collection of decorative and applied art and furniture from this period. During our tour, you will learn about the amazing history of the museum, see many masterpieces of world painting and sculpture from the works of academic artists of the old classical school to provocative Impressionists and avant-garde post-impressionists. You will learn many different scandalous stories, their instigators, participants and defenders, and find out why, in general, this modern art as such arose! You and I will look at the works of the masters through the eyes of their contemporaries and through what we have seen, feel the atmosphere prevailing at this time in Paris, and maybe this will completely change your view of art. The museum is open every day except Mondays.
