Paris's Musée d'Orsay holds 1 work by Gustav Klimt (1862–1918) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.

Klimt's golden paintings are extraordinary objects — part painting, part decorative surface, using gold leaf in ways that cameras cannot accurately photograph. The Kiss and Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I are icons of early 20th-century art, and seeing them in Vienna makes clear why they are so celebrated.

Planning your visit to Paris

Pre-book entry to the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay, especially in summer — queues without a ticket can exceed an hour. Many Paris museums offer free entry on the first Sunday of each month. A day transport pass (carnet) is better value than buying individual Métro tickets.
