Musée Marmottan is simply a hidden gem! It contains the biggest collection of Monet paintings in the world, yet the museum does not nearly receive the same attention than Musée D'Orsay or L'Orangerie for instance. The exhibition "Impression, Sunrise" celebrates the true story of the masterpiece by Monet. As part of the 80th anniversary of the opening of the Musée Marmottan and of the 140th anniversary since the first exhibition of the work "Impression , Sunrise", the exhibition presents 94 paintings, 29 drawings and other personal objects belonging to Monet. There is also a permanent collection featuring numerous works by Berthe Morisot, Degas and Manet to name but a few. The area ('Passy' close to La Muette Metro) is also very sophisticated and quiet. Would defenately like to stay here on future visits to Paris to escape the city noise at night!
