Musée Marmottan Monet

This is a picture of the Marmottan Museum, they have 'that' painting which the label "Impressionism" comes from. "Impression Sunrise", by Monet. They have a great collection of Monet's and many others. There was a Berthe Morisot exhibition, which was good. It was interesting to see how she worked and a detailed collection of her models. I didn't remember that she married Edouard Manet's brother! Did you?

 I was a little disappointed that you couldn't take photos, because it was too fab inside. Lucky I bought a catelogue.

I'd never been to this part of Paris before, so it was interesting. It's in the poshy bit of Paris, in the 16e. It was our first real HOT day (32°c) so it was tiring to walk about, catch metros and TGV trains.
