The Petit Palais

Painting by Mary Cassat

Scluptor Adrian Gaudez, "Lully as a Child" - great story behind this that Martha Riley, one of our group, knew very well.

"Les Mis" the French Revolution

Portrait of Sarah Bernhardt

This painting of the Belle Epoque by LHermite was a sucess at the 1895 Salon and the World Exhibition in 1900, moved to the Petit Palais and was then rolled up and stored during the 20th century.  It is now restored and is a beautiful description of Paris life.

The Petit Palais is a jewel to be discovered!
