As I went to Paris really last minute and totally unannounced (long live flat-hunting and sightseeing), I took the opportunity to visit two museums - the Louvre and Orsay - as they are free with the education pass and for under-26s. The Musée d'Orsay is a museum showing works from the 19th century, so I thought I'd share a few photos of works for HL fandom artists to use as inspirations/references 🤷🏻♀️
Sorry about the quality and framing of the photos, it was very busy in the museums 🥲
And sorry if these works are well known (I know the artists are but I didn't know these works at all)
1. James Tissot, Evening, 1878
2. Franx Xavier Wintheralter, Portrait of Madame Rimsky-Korsakov, 1864
3. Pierre Auguste Renoir, City Dance, 1883
4. Giovanni Boldini, Count Robert de Montesquiou, 1897
5. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Femme de profil, 1896
And from the Louvre museum (All right, it's not 19th century, but anyway):
6. Agnolo di Cosimo di Mariano Tori, dit BRONZINO, Portrait of a Young Man Holding a Statuette, 1550?
7. Salon and period furniture in the Louvre
I don't know if this will help anyone, but you never know 😶
