The Musée d'Orsay, devoted to the art of the second half of the 19th century, is housed in this historic place that is the former Gare d'Orsay, built for the Universal Exhibition of 1900. Its large metal vault, designed by the architect Victor Laloux, offered a privileged place for the sculpture because the light there is changing and the space pleasant for the public. It was therefore there that it was exhibited, emerging from a long purgatory in the cellars of museums or public administrations. Since the inauguration of the museum in 1986, remarkable purchases have made it possible to complete the collections. In this work, one hundred and fifty of the most beautiful works are gathered by currents: Romanticism, Neoclassicism, Electism, Realism, Symbolism, Impressionism, Primitivism, and Return to Style. And, for the first time, there are works in situ, associated with paintings, with architecture, in order to render the atmosphere of this magnificent setting.
