About Musée d'Orsay

The Musée d'Orsay is home to one of the most impressive collections of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and Art-Nouveau works in the world.

The museum is located in the famous former Gare d’Orsay, a Beaux-Arts railway station that was built between 1898 and 1900 but was converted into a museum and opened to the public in 1986 and has since become one of Paris’ most popular museums.

The museums collection includes:

• "Olympia" by Édouard Manet
• "The Luncheon on the Grass" by Édouard Manet
• "Starry Night Over the Rhône" by Vincent van Gogh
• "Bal du moulin de la Galette" by Pierre-Auguste Renoir
• "Whistler's Mother" by James McNeill Whistler
• "The Dance at Le Moulin de la Galette" by Pierre-Auguste Renoir
• "The Card Players" by Paul Cézanne
• "The Gleaners" by Jean-François Millet
• "The Birth of Venus" by Alexandre Cabanel
• "The Bedroom" by Vincent van Gogh

The collection includes a diverse range of works that spans:

• Paintings
• Sculptures
• Decorative Arts
• Photography
• Furniture

It concentrates on pieces from the period of 1848 - 1914, which encompasses the significant artistic movements such as Realism, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism and Art Nouveau.

The building also contributes to the charm of the museum due to its unique architectural features and the large indoor space which includes a central nave and a large glass roof that helps to flood the building with natural light.
