The Petit Palais - Musée des Beaux Art de la Ville de Paris is the Museum of Fine Arts in Paris, located in the eighth arrondissement, not far from the Champs Elysées. The palace was built for the 1900 World's Fair according to the design of Charles Girault, along with the Grand Palais and the Alexandre III Bridge. The palace consists of four architectural wings around a semicircular garden bordered by a richly decorated peristyle. The facade of the Petit Palais, topped by a dome, stretches for 150 meters and is enriched with sumptuous decorations, characterized by bas-reliefs and Doric columns. In the 2000s, the palace underwent restoration works that brought the structure back to its original splendor, under the guidance of architect Philippe Chaix. Inside, the Musée des Beaux Arts houses a permanent collection including works ranging from ancient times to the 20th century: the collection features Greek and Roman art, medieval works, Flemish and Dutch paintings, Italian and French Renaissance works, and pieces by masters such as Cézanne, Delacroix, Ingres, Courbet, and many others. Moreover, temporary exhibitions are regularly set up inside the Petit Palais, covering subjects from painting to photography.
