The collection is fantastic but what's up with the audio English guide? It's the most dumb dumb guide I've ever heard. There's like a brilliant captivating abstract piece that's done with wild inks I've never seen in some hybrid neo modern impressionist motif and the guide is like
"a blue sky and a red house is depicted on an open field! The house is a common 19th century cottage from the Scottish Highlands in the center of the frame. Puffs of smoke pour out the chimney. *Beep*"
And you're like "wait what? That's it?!" It's like a brilliant exercise in trying to miss as much as possible yet still arguably be accurate.
Just replace it, instead with interpretive experimental music for each work. That'd be amazing
I really enjoyed going here, and it was well worth the 1000¥ to go. Had a wonderful display of French art and furniture. Audio in English included with tour. My only improvement would be that on the 4th floor numbers are actually in order.
Had a brilliant experience here. Admission comes with a free audio tour, which has been done really well.
Learnt a lot and will definitely be back.
You aren't allowed to take photos of a few of the paintings. This caught me out once, and the lady had to stop me 😬
