foxy Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Monet’s water lilies are beyond beautiful. Having recently been to Giverny, his garden that inspired them, made the experience even more wonderful.

+ nycman Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I love that display at the Musée de l'Orangerie. It reminds me of the beautiful room they used to have at MOMA to display their Monet Water Lillies. Unfortunately, ever since the destruction..err, sorry…”renovation” of MOMA many years ago, they really haven’t figured out how to display they properly. In addion, the Musée de l'Orangerie often has excellent temporary exhibitions. It looks like they’ve got a great Modigliani show right now. Guess I’m going to have to move up the date of my trip to see the Rothko show at La Fondation Louis Vuitton, so I don’t miss the Modigliani show. The Modigliani show closes mid-January. Christmas in Paris anyone? https://www.musee-orangerie.fr/en https://www.fondationlouisvuitton.fr/en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Art Institute of Chicago really knows how to display the Impressionsts and Post-Impressionists. Monet's Wheat Stacks have an entire room, as I recall.
