Places to see in ( Angers - France ) Musee des Beaux Arts
The Musée des beaux-arts d'Angers is a museum of art located in a mansion, the logis Barrault, place Saint-Éloi near the historic city of Angers. The museum is part of the Toussaint complex, which includes the garden of Fine Arts, the David d'Angers gallery, the city library and the canteen. It displays a rich collection of art works acquired over the centuries on a total area of 7,000 square metres (75,000 sq ft) distributed as follows:
2,500 square metres (27,000 sq ft) for permanent collections
500 square metres (5,400 sq ft) for temporary exhibitions
1,000 square metres (11,000 sq ft) for the public reception areas: lobbies, passing museums, auditorium, video room, coffee shop ...
3,000 square metres (32,000 sq ft) for technical buildings
Thanks to recent restoration the site combines history and development with the most modern presentation. The museum has been classified by the Journal des Arts Museum on 2010 as the best of western France and fourth museum in France (outside Paris). This ranking is due to a redesign of the museum's website and the richness and diversity of the exhibitions.
After the French Revolution, the Directory founded Ecole Centrales (central schools), and that of Maine-et-Loire was transferred to the Logis Barrault mansion. In May 1801, the museum of the Ecole Centrale de Maine-et-Loire opened its doors, modeled on the Louvre. In 1803, the Central Schools were closed, but the municipality of Angers decided to preserve the museum of painting. The natural history museum and municipal library opened in 1805. The museum is considered to be one of the richest in all the neighboring departments, and after that of Paris it would be one of the finest in France. In the two centuries that followed the museum came to have a critical lack of space and obsolete facilities, but this did not prevent the museum from receiving regular bequests and prestigious gifts, including those of Pierre-Jean David, called David d'Angers.
In 1839 the David d'Angers Gallery was inaugurated in the former refectory of the museum (where it remained until 1984). In 1859, Lancelot-Théodore Turpin de Crissé enriched the museum's collection with a considerable legacy: Egyptian, Greek and Roman antiques, ancient bronzes, Greek vases, glasses, enamels and pottery, as well as many paintings including some by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (Paolo and Francesca) and some primitives including a triptych of the School of Avignon. He had built up a collection that reflected the eclectic tastes of the Restoration, with an estimated total value of nearly one million francs at the time. In 1861 the painter Guillaume Bodinier offered the city the hôtel Pincé - musée Pincé - to house the objects of the Turpin de Crissé collection. In 1887 the Beaurepaire gallery was inaugurated, built perpendicularly to the David d'Angers gallery and designed by city architect Charles Demoget.
Two or three temporary exhibitions are presented annually at the museum in the temporary exhibition hall, such as works of Niki de Saint Phalle in 2004 or François Morellet in 2006. Some exhibitions are now held in permanent collections, such as the 2008 exhibition of Agnès Thurnauer.

Hotel Barge Panache cruising through the enchanting town of Saverne in Alsace-Lorraine
- Hotel barge Panache cruising through the enchanting town of Saverne in Alsace-Lorraine where history traces back over 2,000 years to the Gallo-Roman Times, mooring at the foot of the Château de Rohan, also known as the 'Versailles of Alsace'. After lunch we enjoy a scenic drive into the rolling Vosges hills on the Route des Grands Crus, followed by a private tasting of Gewürztraminer, Pinot Noir and Riesling wines.
In the Summer and Autumn, Panache cruises the beautiful waterways of Alsace- Lorraine. It is a region in Eastern France with a unique mix of French and German cultures, Baroque and Romanesque architecture, storybook villages, diverse culinary specialities and wonderful white wines.
During our voyage we visit historic landmarks such as Strasbourg's majestic Gothic cathedral and the enchanting village of Saverne where history traces back over 20 centuries to the Gallo-Roman times. We also tour fascinating places such as Sarrebourg with its museum and the chapel containing Marc Chagall's stunning stained glass windows, and visit the outstanding René Lalique collection of Nouveau and Art Deco glassware, chandelier and designs. We explore the rolling Vosges hills on the Route des Grands Crus, where the finest wines in Alsace are produced and of course experience an ascent or descent aboard the barge of the dramatic 'boat elevator' at Arzviller.
Panache is a stylish twelve passenger hotel barge, with spacious public areas and six comfortable double or twin en suite cabins. All the bathrooms have twin handbasins and oversized showers with massage jets. There are panoramic windows in the saloon and the barge has been fitted out in traditional yacht style with brass and mahogany fittings. A large sun deck and spa pool, plus 12 bicycles for guests' use to explore the towpath complete the picture.
French farm fields along the A35 autoroute between Switzerland and Strasbourg late June 2016
These are French farm fields in France along the A35 autoroute at various places between the Swiss border and Strasbourg as they appeared on June 26, 2016. Going back through my original footage I discovered that I had a lot of fields and being interested very much in agriculture being a farm owner myself, I thought some people might be interested to see what French fields looked like late June of 2016. My understanding is that this was an unusually wet year in France and you can indeed see water in some of the fields.
