The Orangerie was built under Napoléon III to house the orange trees from his garden during the winter season and since 1873, exhibitions are held.
Monet’s Waterlilies (Nymphéas) are presented according to the painter wishes, a total of eight panels of several meters exposed in two oval rooms to remind of the running hours. The visit continues with paintings, Renoir, Cezanne, Matisse, Modigliani, Picasso, Derain, Utrillo, Soutine.
The word museum is a bit misleading. It is an exhibition space of great interest. I advise to take the audio guide because the explanations are very comprehensive and if you are lucky enough and you arrive at the good time they may propose a guided tour to you.
