Parc Monceau

This is my third time in Paris, but we decided to take an overview included tour since it would be easier for Boris.
Basically it was an overview tour with few stops.

After we returned back to the hotel, we assembled a wheelchair and walked toward Musee Jacquemart Andree. This museum was recommended by our tour guide.

The Musée is a private museum. The museum was created from the private home of Édouard André (1833–1894) and Nélie Jacquemart (1841–1912) to display the art they collected during their lives.

Every year, this very rich couple would travel in Italy, amassing one of the finest collections of Italian art in France. When Edouard André died, Nélie Jacquemart completed the decoration of the Italian Museum and travelled in the Orient to add more precious works to the collection. Faithful to the plan agreed with her husband, she bequeathed the mansion and its collections to the Institut de France as a museum, and it opened to the public in 1913.
The collection is stunning. It includes many famous paintings including Rembrandt and Caravaggio.

After museum, we slowly walk back to the hotel. Tomorrow, we have to be up before 6:00AM.Read more
