Orangerie Museum In-App Tour: the Power of Impressionism (Without a Ticket)



This is a self-guided audio tour of the Orangerie Museum, a gallery of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings.

Note! This tour DOES NOT Include an entrance ticket! Buy it at musee-orangerie.fr

The larger-than-life Water Lilies by Monet are the main attraction, but they are far from the only reason to visit. Situated in an old greenhouse in the heart of Paris, this museum is also notable for having the Walter Guillaume collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art.

This in-app audio tour explains how Impressionism was born and how Monet's painting technique evolved over time. You will gain insights on the genesis of the Water Lily collection, Monet's creative vision, and how the Orangerie was adapted to accommodate the paintings.

The amazing Walter Guillaume collection on the Lower Level allows the visitor to understand the evolution from Impressionism to Modern Art. The influence of African Art on the early Modernists led them to create the first abstract paintings.

Note! This tour is not affiliated with the Orangerie Museum but is provided by an independent creator.

The best tour I had in Paris so far. The Water Lilies has always been my favorite painting, and I still was impressed by the facts I learned about it on the tour.
