Musee d'Orsay

This museum was once a train station and has now been converted into a museum, and just like everything else here in Paris is so grandiose. Some great works present here from Monet, Manet, Degas, Renoir, Cézanne, Seurat, Gauguin and Van Gogh. 




My favorite was from Jean-Léon Gérôme, a painting that unexplainably appeared to be three dimensional and was most impressive. Many patrons, including myself stared at it from many different angles attempting to understand why/how it looks they way it does.
