You will discuss Delacroix, Ingres, Courbet, Daumier, Millet, Manet, Monet, Degas, Renoir, Rodin, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Toulouse-Lautrec and many others.

    Abbiamo avuto l'opportunità di visitare la Gare d’Orsay con Maurizio ed è stata un'esperienza unica! La sua preparazione e conoscenza dell'arte e degli artisti sono impressionanti! Ma soprattutto la sua simpatia e cordialità hanno reso la visita memorabile…non ci siamo mai annoiati! Consigliatissimo

    Excellent visite du Musée d'Orsay avec le sympathique Lucas, avec le bon tempo, riche en perspectives historico-politiques illustrant l'evolution de la peiture depuis l'ere academique jusqu'à l'impressionisme et au dela.
