In 1986, 47 years after it had closed as a mainline railway station, Victor Lanoux's superb turn-of-the-century building was reopened as the Musée d'Orsay. Originally commissioned to be its terminus in the heart of Paris, it narrowly avoided demolition in the 1970s following the outcry over the destruction of Baltard's pavilions at Les Halles Food Market. During the conversion much of the original architecture was retained. The new museum was set up to present each of the arts of the period from 1848 to 1914 in the contexte of the contemporary society and all the various forms of creative activity happening at the time.
Can be found in the Museum:
- The gates of Hell (Rodin)
- Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe (Manet),
The Dance (Carpeau)
- Dancing at the Moulin de la Galette (Renoir),
- La Belle Angèle (Gauguin)
