As soon as you enter the Musée de l’Orangerie, which sits in the right-hand corner of Jardin des Tuileries you are immediately struck by the effect of the natural light filtering through the floor to ceiling windows and the glass ceiling.
As you ascend the ramp leading to its most famous exhibit, Monet’s 'Water Lilies'. you are at first led into a completely white vestibule, designed by Monet as a 'de-stressing area' which can take you a bit by surprise but as you contemplate what awaits you in the next room you have a sudden realisation of its purpose. It is the perfect introduction to Monet's eight Water Lily murals displayed around two oval rooms.
