Paris Trip 2012 - Wandering in Musee D Orsay



The museum is located in an old railway station - so it is very charming with the old station clocks. Built in the 1900s, it housed many impressionist painters like Van Gogh's spartan bedroom,  Cezanne's card players (saw them when the exhibition came to Singapore), Degas' ballerinas (paintings and statues). I had a lovely time exploring Musee D'Orsay. I joined a guided tour in English and the guide was very humorous and explained to us the key paintings and sculptures and the progression of paintings. I enjoyed the museum.

Unfortunately no photos are allowed. But I sneaked a couple in :).
