Ever since it was opened by Simon Lhopiteau, the Galerie Orsay Paris is moslty interested in post-Impressionism and all the way to early 20th century Modernism and Abstraction. It is located on the romantic Paris Left Bank, two minutes away from the Orsay Museum and the spectacular riverside views of the quays of the Seine. It is housed in a late 18th century mansion, designed by famed Louis XVI architect Claude-Nicolas Ledoux.
With a PhD in Art History from the Sorbonne and a degree from the École du Louvre, Simon Lhopiteau is also a member of the « Société de l'Histoire de l'Art français » and a certified expert with the « Compagnie Nationale des Experts » (C.N.E.).
The gallery periodically sets up shows, particularly in connection with the CERCLE BEAUX-ARTS RIVE GAUCHE.
