13 works across 2 institutions
Paris holds 13 works by Eugène Delacroix across 2 institutions, including Musée d'Orsay and Petit Palais.
Delacroix led French Romanticism and his paintings have an energy and colour intensity that anticipates Impressionism. In person, the surfaces of his large canvases are extraordinary: spontaneous and physical, with passages of painterly virtuosity that Constable himself admired.

Musée d'Orsay
Paris · 5 works on display
Housed in a spectacular Beaux-Arts railway station, the Orsay holds the world's finest collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painting, covering 1848 to 1914. The collection of Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Van Gogh is unrivalled anywhere.
Petit Palais
💎 Hidden GemParis · 8 works on display
The Petit Palais houses Paris's City of Paris Museum of Fine Arts, a permanent collection of paintings and decorative arts that is free to enter. The building itself — a Beaux-Arts gem built for the 1900 World's Fair — is as impressive as the collection.

Planning your visit to Paris
