Whenever I visit the Musée d'Orsay, I always feel that the building itself is as much a work of art as the material it contains. It is one of my favourites as well. Thank you for posting its portrait.
Yes i love it too! Maybe next time we are in paris we could meet for a coffee in the cafe there?
Oh, and next time you are there, would you please say hello to Caillebotte's Floor Strippers, my favourite painting in the whole place (and that's a HARD pcik!)
Hi Sally,
I will definitely pass on your greetings to the hard working gentlemen. I'm hoping to be there in October of this year; money permitting. I will keep you all posted on my travel plans - just in case we wash up in the same place at the same time.
One of my favorites too. Thanks for posting.
This is a beautiful museum and seems more "visitor friendly" than most museums. So light and open.

What a great reuse. I will put this one on my "A" visit list.
I haven't been to Paris since 2003, but isn't the D'Orsay the museum with the Paris Opera model? I loved standing above it. Joan
Yes Joan, that's the place with the Opera Model. I'll post a picture of it later.
Salut Laurent!
I love your Paris daily photo blog. C'est formidable! I'm leaving soon for a quick 13 day "vacation" in Europe. England, France and Liechtenstein. I have a Rotary breakfast meeting le jeudi 25. juin 'a 8 heures 'a Hotel Paiva - 25, Champs-Elysees. How about a cup coffee and a few photos afterwards? 9:30 ish du matin? I'll either be with an American colleague or a French friend.
