Paris, Orangerie Museum

Iconic Collection of the Paris School

The Musée de l’Orangerie is picturesquely situated in the Jardin des Tuileries in Paris and is considered one of the most impressive venues for Impressionist and modern painting. The museum is world-renowned for Claude Monet's monumental Nymphéas – eight large-format water lily panoramas, specifically designed for two oval rooms, creating an almost meditative atmosphere. The collection is complemented by the works of the Jean Walter and Paul Guillaume collection, which brings together masters of the late 19th and early 20th centuries – including Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, Amedeo Modigliani, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Pablo Picasso. Thus, the Musée de l’Orangerie not only offers a unique insight into Monet's later work but also provides an in-depth overview of the development towards modernity.
