Musées d'Orsay et de l'Orangerie
The Musée d’Orsay, a national museum, opened to the public in 1986 to show the great diversity of artistic creation in the western world between 1848 and 1914. It is home to national collections coming mainly from three establishments: the Louvre Museum, for the works of artists born after 1820 or emerging in the art world during the Second Republic; the Musée du Jeu de Paume, devoted to Impressionism since 1947; and the National Museum of Modern Art, which kept exclusively works by artists born after 1870 when it moved to the Centre Georges Pompidou in 1976.
