    Seeing this museum in life was great joy. It's unlike any museum I've ever been too. It's been over decade but I remember it well. I loved the architecture and even though I thought it was not as large as other museums of Europe, it's the one I remember best. Being an engineer myself, I didn't realize the amount of engineering that went into the building. Simply an amazing achievement. Thanks for the video.

    This museum was just opened as I graduated from school with an art history degree and then continued on for a masters in historic preservation planning and conservation development. This project was one which my studies constantly visited again and again, and even though I've never been there physically, I feel as if this building and it's story is like an old friend you see rarely, but with whom, when you do, it's like no time has passed and you pick up right where you last left off. So watching this tonight was just what I needed to fill my evening and send me to bed with a smile. The Musee D'Orsay is truly a building from which dreams are made of.

    Paris is an artist's paradise. As an artist, I went there specifically to visit the museums and spent five days of museum hunting and it was a blast. I remember all the dates and details of my visit almost nineteen years ago. However, although I reveled in The Louvre and Musée d'Orsay, the one that left the most lasting impact on me was Musée Gustav Moreau, located at 14 Rue de Rochefoucauld.

      Me too! It is a lifelong soul memory for me some 30 years ago... visited alone and visited musee d'orsay (❤ impressionists period). Hope to return when Notre Dame reopens... I cherish these videos in the meantime!

      I always think that Paris is painters paradise and Italy is the sculptures paradise.
      For ancient ruins and statues, it'll be both Greece and Turkey, thanks to the Romans empire.

    The Musee D’Orsay is almost relentlessly overwhelming; it just goes on and on.

    I was so excited to visit this museum that on Thursday 17th April 2003, after a long flight from NYC, we landed at Charles De Gaul Airport at 12:30 pm and within two (2) hours my wife and I were at Musée d'Orsay. I speak French and had no difficulty finding my way to the museum. It was the night when the museum was opened until 9:00 pm and we remained there until closing. My main target was Manet's "Olympia" and, for crying out loud, I was standing not too far from it and couldn't see it. I went there with a must-see list and the only one on my list that I didn't see was Cezanne's "House of The Hanged Man". I reserved two (2) days for The Louvre.

    I spent 5 hours at the D'Orsay and would go back and spend many, many more hours there in future. Absolutely stunning architecture and works.

    I was at D'Orsay on the 17 August 2023, just an amazing experience. Hoping to a new visit soon, regards from Brasil.

    As a Master's candidate in French, I knew these works well. When I saw them in person, I was deeply moved, as though an old friend had suddenly appeared before my eyes. It's a moment I'll never forget.

    I'm glad to say I have had the pleasure of visiting this fabulous museum about 4 years ago. I had no idea of its history and found the space breath taking, it really is an unforgettable experience with its superb collection of art. Thank you for making this video.

    Great documentary. Here in the US, the station's future would have been far less secure back in the 70s. For example, look what happened to the masterpiece of Penn Station in New York. Jackie Onassis was instrumental, however, in saving Grand Central Terminal and starting the movement for preservation rather demolition. It's less than clear from this film though what became of the 370 hotel rooms. Were they used for expanding the available space for exhibition purposes or back-of-house uses like storage, admin offices, plant and equipment or a combination of all these things?

    Interesting film completely ruined by intrusive music and a badly written commentary. The way the hectic music laboured against the pompous voice over set my teeth on edge. Now feeling like I've been run over by a train. Nonetheless awed by the Orsay.

    Hey did you know The Musée D'Orsay has a load bearing structure of metal? This documentary spends the FIRST 6 MINUTES and 47 SECONDS telling you that like 12 times. They don't get into how or why it was built that way. They just make the statement like 12 times. Thank you, we get it. Could we move on please? Oh you still have to tell us 11 more times. I see.

    • @parlainthtownie85
      @parlainthtownie85 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Victor planned to use all the possibilities of metal. In particular its "Solidity" - lol really. Metal is Solid so we can use it to build stuff.

    This documentary seems to be written and produced by flowery writers and artists.. that's where it fails as a doc.
    It's Supposed to be about a magnificent building; that's architecture which can be Art, but there are a lot of Technical elements to architecture.
    The use of vague terms to describe the construction are the most annoying failings; 'metal' structural support= wrought iron, 'floor'=footer/foundation, 'steam powered'= coal-powered (smoke/air pollution in tunnel), and many more.. I give this documentary a 'just ok'.

    Horrible music. Distracting and unnecessary. The rest is palatable.

    The new interior walls "geometric shapes" are very bland and generic. A more classical style, something closer to the style and era of the monumental ceilings would have been so much nicer to look at. I hope they don't rebuild the interior of the Notre Dame in such a bland and modern style.
