Join me for a captivating exploration of the Musée d'Orsay, where we will uncover the artistic revolutions that marked the 19th century. During this breathtaking visit you'll discover the highlights and the masterpieces of the museum. I'll lead you covering a plethora of different styles, from Classicism & Neoclassicism to Orientalism & Realism. We'll of course dive into Impressionism, covering some of its largest contributors: Monet, whose play of light and color captures fleeting moments, and Manet, a forerunner of the movement with his modern life scenes. We'll also be swept away by the whirlwind of Post-Impressionism, where Van Gogh expresses his inner turmoil through passionate brushstrokes. In addition, while not as globally known, you'll sure be dazzled by Seurat's Pointillism, a revolutionary technique where small dots of pure color create vibrant images. This visit will be a journey through the movements that shaped modern art. Come discover these unforgettable artistic treasures with me!
·The Rhinoceros statue in front of the Orsay Museum will be our meeting point and also the beginning of your tour. ·Once we've gathered, I'll proceed to unpack the history of Orsay, going back to when it was a train station in 1900. ·We'll then step into the museum and start discussing Classicism and its meticulous painting techniques (Bouguereau). ·We'll then dive into the Realism of Courbet, who challenged conventions by depicting society's raw truth. ·What follows will be the work of Impressionists Manet, Monet & Renoir. ·Right after that, we'll dive into Post-impressionism, focusing on Cézanne, Gauguin and Van Gogh. ·Next, we'll discuss Signac and Seurat's Pointillism. ·At last, we'll reach the Gate of Hell (Rodin). ·We will end our tour at the exit of the museum, after which I will take you back to the nearest metro. Alternatively, if you'd like to stay in the area, I could point you to a lovely restaurant for example.
