VISITORS to the France Pavilion`s exhibition will feel like they are paying a visit to the Musee d`Orsay in Paris, famed as "the most beautiful museum in Europe," a top official said yesterday.
Seven of the museum`s best-known masterpieces are coming to Shanghai, including work by Cezanne, Manet, Millet, Rodin and Van Gogh.
The paintings and one sculpture will be transported to the Expo site on separate flights.
The paintings will include Millet`s "The Angelus," Manet`s "The Balcony," Cezanne`s "Woman with Coffee Pot" and Van Gogh`s "The Dance Hall in Arles." The sculpture is Rodin`s "The Age of Bronze."
