Amazing opportunity to see Impressionist paintings as one family lived with them. Beautifully furnished house set in a natural park.

The small museum has an amazing history. I highly recommend going. There are pieces of artwork here that you will see nowhere else in the world. I feel privileged that I was able to go.
