Paris - Petit Palais

The Galerie Zoubaloff displays 19th C painting from neo-classicism to the Impressionists, including pictures by Gros, Géricault, Ingres, Delacroix, Millet, Corot, Courbet, Cézanne, Monet and Pissarro. There are also some attractive pieces of sculpture by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux.

In addition to interesting temporary exhibitions the Petit Palais has housed since 1902 the valuable art collections of the city of Paris, which have been much enhanced by private donations: the Dutuit brothers, for example, bequeathed to the city in 1902 a collection of ancient, medieval and Renaissance art, with pictures (including works by Rembrandt and Rubens), drawings, books, majolica, enamels and ceramics, while the Tuck collection, presented to the city in 1930, consists mainly of 18th century furniture, tapestries and sculpture.
