Renaissance Art And Artists
Paris Hotels: See Some Of The Most Famous Art
From Notre Dame, to the River Seine and the Arc d’Triomphe to the Eiffel Tower, Paris is packed with famous sights and sounds. This will largely appeal to one particular group of tourists. Whether you’re a budding artist, an art aficionado, or just appreciate good art, you can’t help but be blown away by Paris. Home to over 170 museums alone, the city, along with the plethora of Paris hotels, will have you reaching for the camera non- stop!
Start by visiting the most iconic art gallery – La Louvre. With over 35,000 works of art on display in this beautiful museum, which range from Greek and Roman antiques to Egyptian and Renaissance some claim that you can get lost in the museum. Although IM Pei’s light-filled pyramid is famous enough itself, it also holds the most renowned painting of all, Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. Head from the Paris hotels early to beat the crowds.
The extensive collection at the Musee d’Orsay won’t disappoint. While here you’ll discover some of the many factors that first shaped impressionism, the birth of the railway, the Barbizon school and most importantly – the open air. While you should definitely check out the panoramic views of Paris from the museum’s roof, Musee d’Orsay also boasts one of the most comprehensive collections of impressionist art in the world.
Home of Swiss art collector Corbusier in 1923, La Villa Roche is a fine example of modern architecture, where you can also see all drawings, plans, notes and artworks that were left to the Fondation Le Corbusier upon his death in 1965. Make sure you take a moment to look at the stunning attention to detail of this building.
Don’t forget to check out the impressive new art of Paris too. Head out from your Paris hotels to discover the next big thing at CentQuatre 104. The resident artists showcase their works of art in the art space next door, in an attempt to bring Montmarte back to its artistic roots.
Musee Rodin will provide the perfect ending to your city break. Housed in a mansion where he lived and worked and that contained one of the largest private gardens in Paris. Even if you’re not a Rodin fan, you can’t help but be in awe of some of his magnificent sculptures.
