Guided tour on orientalism, Musée des Augustins, Toulouse
On Thursday 31 December 2026 at 14:30 the Musée des Augustins in Toulouse offers a themed guided tour of its collections, given in French and titled L'orientalisme. The listing says the museum's guide-lecturers lead visitors through the collections of paintings and sculptures. It explains that in the 19th century the Orient became a major source of inspiration for European artists, and that the works on the route explore several sides of orientalism, from travel accounts and the observation of the cultures encountered to idealised visions of faraway places. The tour runs from 14:30 to 15:30, and the listing adds that the museum closes at 16:00. Booking is handled through the museum's online ticketing page linked from the listing. The listing does not give a price. A guided museum visit like this is easy to do alone, since the group follows one guide and the conversation is about the works on the walls. «Au 19ᵉ siècle, l'Orient devient une source d'inspiration majeure pour les artistes européens.» Starts 14:30, ends about 15:30.
