Miriam, one of our local guides, possesses extensive knowledge of the museum and its treasures. She says, ‘One of my greatest passions is explaining the background of the Impressionist movement and art in the Musée d’Orsay. The history is fascinating and knowing it helps you truly understand the motivations of these great artists.’Beyond the paintings, you’ll also find a vast collection of sculptures, furniture, and photographs from the 19th and 20th centuries in the museum.
