Når et 'must see' lever op til forventningerne

Musee d'Orsay er et godt kunstmuseum, hvor både den faste samling, men også den skiftende udstilling fuldt ud lever op til forventning. Rigtig god museumsformidling på teksterne i den midlertidige udstilling. Eneste minus er, at der er for mange gæster, for hvem det er vigtigere at tage selfies med de berømte malerier, end at studere dem, Og går helt tæt på, så kun få kan se dem. Der mangler lidt plads og pli fra de mange 'tjek-liste-turister', der naturligt også er. At købe plads i den prioriterede kø var god beslutning, og den samlede ventetid for at komme igennem fuldt ud acceptabel, der var bevægelse hele tiden.

The architecture of the former railway station is worth going to see in its own right. Have a drink in the cafe and ponder the huge clock and views over Paris. The Impressionist paintings on the top floor are interesting with a good selection of painters and painting genres. The furniture is also a highlight.

Beautiful! However, I Still had to stand in line for half hour with pass and reserved time. The very young groups of children were a huge problem. They were kindergarten age- how much could they comprehend of Impressionist paintings?!? I was worried “Starry night “was going to be knocked off wall. I have never been in a museum so understaffed.
