D´Orsay
Museum
Result of the transformation of a train station into a
museum, its design allows to emphasize the great nave,
using it as the main axis of the course. The objective
of the museum is to show all the diversity of the artistic
creation of the western world from 1848 to 1914. For that,
resorts to the national collections coming from three
places: the Louvre Museum for works of artists born since
1820 or who arose in the world of the art within the Second
Republic; the Museum of Jeu de Paume -consecrated since
1947 to the impressionism- and finally, the National Museum
of Modern Art that, when settling in 1976 in the Georges
Pompidou Centre, only conserved works of artists been
born after 1870.
