The Musée du Luxembourg is hosting the masterpieces of the museums of Budapest. The famous Museum of Fine Art (Szépművészeti Múzeum), currently being renovated, joins the Hungarian National Gallery to present the gems of their collections in Paris, from mediaeval sculpture to symbolism and expressionism. The exhibition brings together eighty paintings, drawings and sculptures by Dürer, Cranach, El Greco, Goya, Manet, Gauguin and Kokoschka and ten emblematic works of Hungarian art with an unexpected perspective on European art.

Exhibition organised by the Réunion des Musées Nationaux – Grand Palais, the Budapest Museum of Fine Art and the Hungarian National Gallery.
