Celebrate 150 years of Impressionism at the museum

150 years ago, Monet, Sisley and Renoir revolted and sent tubes of paint flying, crystallizing on the canvas a sensitive and quivering nature. Home of the largest impressionist collection in the world, the Musée d'Orsay today celebrates the triumph of the movement by making us relive its sensational entry into the history of art, while inviting us on a veritable tour of France with the exceptional loan of one hundred and seventy-eight masterpieces. From Paris to Arles, via Montpellier and Clermont-Ferrand, follow us in the footsteps of the Impressionists…
