  리뷰가 별로 없어서 중요하지 않은곳인줄 알았어요. 시간이 남아 들렸다가... 깜짝 놀랐어요. 아비뇽에서는 앙글라동 미술관이 최고인줄 알았는데... 이 곳은 무료이고, 작품 수도 많고(28000점), 시대의 폭도 넓고. 더 좋더군요. 특히 다비드의 마라의 죽음과 쌍이 되는 바라의 죽음이 이 곳에 있어요. 마네, 시슬리, 샤임수틴, 보나르, 라울뒤피등 유명작도...  more »

  The place was very nice. Time has been heard... I was surprised. In Avignon I thought it was the best art museum in the east... This place is free, lots of works (28000), and a wide mob of times. More good. In particular, the death of David's Mara, and the death of a pair, are here. There are a lot of famous things such as Knockout, Sisley, Shaim Sustin, Bonar, Raul du blood, etc.

  The Rue Joseph Vernet, housed in the former Vilnev Hotel, has a magnificent collection of fine art. The Exhibited works made a good impression. During The visit there were not many visitors, the rooms are spacious, which allowed to quietly study the works. The Opportunity to inspect the permanent collection was provided free of charge.

  I liked the museum, even though I'm not a great expert in modern art. I strongly recommend the Flemish section. Plus: the entrance is free.
