A pioneer of Neo-Impressionism and a pillar of anarchist and libertarian circles, Maximilien Luce (1858-1941) marked his era with a profound artistic and political commitment. A painter of urban and rural landscapes and the human condition, he captured the social and industrial transformations of his time with a unique sensitivity.
The first Parisian retrospective since 1983 dedicated to this major Neo-Impressionist painter, the exhibition is held just steps from where Luce resided from 1887 to 1900, on Rue Cortot. Rooted in the history of Montmartre and the contradictions of his time, the painter's work is highlighted in this exhibition, which aims to reaffirm his importance and introduce his often overlooked oeuvre to the general public.
Besides the humanist character that made the man's heart beat and distinguished his entire oeuvre, landscape was the other dominant theme that animated his painting throughout his life. Luce captures light and color, revealing the beauty of urban and rural landscapes with a persistent social sensitivity.
For the exhibition "Maximilien Luce, the Instinct for Landscape," the Musée de Montmartre has chosen to present his work through the prism of landscape, taking visitors on a retrospective journey between the two essential centers of his life: Paris and Rolleboise. Visitors are invited to follow the artist's wanderings from Montmartre, where he lived from 1887 to 1900, through the bustle of the Parisian streets, and through his travels from Saint-Tropez to the Pays-Noir of Charleroi, via the Netherlands, Normandy, and London.

My only regret is that I didn&#39;t have enough time. I plan to go again next time I&#39;m in Paris.
- &quot;The Louvre isn&#39;t just a building, but a frozen epic, each piece telling a story spanning millennia.&quot;
- &quot;The armless Venus de Milo, the headless Winged Victory of Samothrace, the mysterious Mona Lisa&mdash;the beauty of imperfection, in turn, creates a timeless awe.

Eiffel Tower

It is worth climbing the stairs to walk up, where you can see many different scenery and surprises. The only drawback is that it is very tiring and there are not enough toilets. There are many tourists, and it is really painful to queue for a long time and there are many people in the toilets on the ground during cleaning time. Otherwise, this attraction is really super beautiful and worth visiting again and again in different seasons.

Obviously it is one of favorite place to visit in Paris but this is first time with my kids and they enjoyed it .

Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris

清无梓境

🌟 Paris stroll: a city romantic code, how many people do not know Paris, this name knows this building, in the textbooks to read the ugly bell ringer has increased the mystery of the biological Notre Dame, Paris must punch in the red location. The interior has not yet opened, and the exterior is still under maintenance. 🗼 Notre Dame Cathedral is under maintenance, and the people who come to punch in are still endless, just to witness the truth. It reopened in September. You can make an online reservation for the Seine River at night like a picture scroll slowly unfolding. The beauty is unspeakable.

Musee de Montmartre

When I was visiting Montmartre, I just happened to find a place to drink coffee, and the Montmartre Museum was right next to it. The museum is not big, but the decoration is unexpectedly beautiful. There are not many exhibits, but they are all very interesting.
