Located at Paris' Place de la Concorde, this Museum is also on the edge of the Tuileries Gardens. Several Auguste Rodin sculptures are set outside the Museum.
Monet chose this Museum to display several of his Water Lilies paintings in 1927 where they still reside. However, the Museum also has "works by Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, Amedeo Modigliani, Pablo Picasso, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Henri Rousseau, Alfred Sisley, Chaim Soutine, and Maurice Utrillo..."
