Let me preface this post-
I am not that tourist who goes to museums to take pictures
I go to museums to LOOK at art
it bugged me when the tourists would hide behind their cameras the whole time
you get the same vision from a camera as you do on a computer/textbook
s
o when you go to museums- LOOK at the art
Also- we spent lots of time at these two museums
my hubby is getting his master's in Art History= awesome explanations of many of the paintings
and watching him be SO HAPPY!
Also- thank heavens for free bathrooms and benches
Louvre
It was pouring rain- right after this our umbrella flew into the street |
this sculpture really was amazing at the top of the stairs- T can tell you the name, period and artist |
I loved looking at the art- but sometimes looking up you got an amazing view as well |
There it is- proof I was there. Not my fav painting though |
My view most of the time |
Musee de Orsay
T was so excited about this one- can I can now understand why. AMAZING |
It is an old railroad station- the ceiling was so fun! |
Loved the clock on the upper floor looked out over all of Paris |
This clock was my fav |
