After visiting the Louvre and Musée de l'Orangerie (see previous posts), I was able to round off my day's tour of Parisian galleries by visiting the Musée d'Orsay thanks to it being opening late, until 9:45pm, on Thursday evenings. Housed in a former Beaux-Arts train station built between 1898 and 1900, the Musée d'Orsay is an architectural masterpiece. Most importantly, it boasts a magnificent selection of paintings by my favourite artist, Monet. I was ecstatic beyond belief to get to see, for the first time ever, my second-favourite Monet - after his 'Water Lily Pond' - which is 'The Poppy Fields near Argenteuil'. (Contrary to what some visitors to my homes over the last 25 years have believed, the one I have on my wall is a £50 print, not the original at Musée d'Orsay which I reckon would be a bargain at even £500 million.) After having taken a thousand photos through the day at the three art galleries, I had 0% battery left on my phone and was relieved I managed to get someone to take a few pictures of me next to 'The Poppy Fields' before my phone died seconds later! See the world premiere of those 'The Monet Shot' (2023) pictures among the videos and photos below. . . . #musée #museedorsay #muséedorsay #dorsay #parisienne #orsay #parisvibes #musee #d'orsay #dorsay #paris #monetpoppyfields #museeorsay #francemuseum #photography #monetpoppy #museedorsay #orsaygallery #poppyart #museeparis #dorsaygallery #peinture #sculpture #wanderlust #monetphoto #monetpainting #parisjetaime #poppyfieldspainting (at Musée d'Orsay) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn2VKyKNajt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
