Some of the well known artists whose works are part of the museum’s collection include: Cassatt, Cezanne, Degas, Courbet, Guaguin, Ingres, Manet, Millet, Monet, Morisot, Pissarro, Renoir, Rousseau, Seurat, Toulouse-Lautrec, van Gogh, Vuillard and Whistler.

This is such an amazing place! The art is fantastic, but it is almost as fantastic to see such a great building beautifully repuposed. I wish we did that better here.
This is one of my favourite places in Paris. And I agree, what a wonderful way to re-use a building!
