Volcan Baru

Volcan Baru, watercolor on paper, 5x7" (12x17cm.)


Today I'll talk about another museum I loved: Musee Cernuchi, Musee de la Ville de Paris. Mr. Cernuchi was born in Italy, he had gone to Paris as a refugee, worked and made his fortune there. He loved Asian art and had a great collection of Asian art. He donated his collection to the city of Paris for everybody to enjoy. This museum is free (all museums belonging to the "Ville de Paris" are free), it has a lovely Japanese garden in the back. I recommend it for your next visit to Paris, France. Hoy les contare de otro museo que me encanta: el museo Cernuchi, Museo de la Ciudad de Paris. El senor Cernuchi nacio en Italia, el habia ido a Paris como refugiado, trabajo y amaso su fortuna alli. Amaba el arte asiatico y tenia una gran coleccion. El dono su coleccion de Arte Asiatico a la ciudad de Paris para que todo el mundo la disfrutara. Este museo es gratis (todos los museos pertenecientes a "La Ciudad de Paris" son gratis), tiene un hermoso jardin japones atras. Lo recomiendo en tu proxima visita a Paris, Francia.
