The listing says that the museum's guide-lecturers lead the visit through the richness of the paintings and sculptures on display. It explains that in the 19th century the Orient became a major source of inspiration for European artists, and that paintings and sculptures explore many facets of orientalism, from travel accounts and observation of the cultures encountered to idealised visions of faraway places. The tour runs from 14:30 to 15:30. The listing does not give a price. Tickets are handled through the museum's online booking system. A guided museum tour is easy to enjoy alone, since the group follows one guide and everyone looks at the same works, which makes it simple to share impressions with other visitors. «Au 19ᵉ siècle, l'Orient devient une source d'inspiration majeure pour les artistes européens.» Starts 14:30, ends about 15:30.
