It's not easy at all to register the 2 tickets I bought. Everything is done to download an application (headout if I understood correctly) that I didn't want to download. So it's impossible to put this ticket in the Carte application. The ticket says it's undated when in fact it's dated. I only have one crypto for 2 tickets purchased. At the entrance I was asked for my 2nd ticket. The person passes his device over the same crypto and finds the 2 nd ticket. Incomprehensible and painful experience from online purchase to entrance.

Why visit the Petit Palais Museum?
Architectural splendor
The Petit Palais is an example of Beaux-Arts architecture designed by Charles Garnier for the 1900 Exposition Universelle. The architecture is a blend of classical and Art Nouveau styles, coupled with its lush gardens. Its front entrance is a stained-glass rotunda with sculptures, a testament to the grandeur of the Belle Époque.
Art collection
The Petit Palais Museum houses a vast collection of paintings and decorative arts from the pre-historic period to the 19th century. Admire works by renowned artists like Renoir, Monet, and Degas, and lesser-known painters like Pierre Bonnard, and Edouard Vuillard.
A hidden gem
The Petit Palais Museum offers an opportunity to explore a lesser-known cultural treasure just steps away from the bustling Champs-Elysees. Experience art and architecture in a peaceful space without the crowds of the more popular museums.
Popular artworks at the Petit Palais Museum
Jérôme de La Lande
A portrait of the astronomer Jérôme de La Lande painted by Fragonard, a renowned 18th-century artist, as part of a series of fantastical portraits. The painting is defined by quick brushstrokes and a focus on the subject's expressive face.
Knight, Death and Devil (Bartsch 98)
Durer, a renowned German artist, created the engraving "Knight, Death, and the Devil." This painting depicts a knight riding through a desolate landscape, confronting the forces of death and evil. Observe the knight's determination and symbolism in the painting.
Red-legged Partridge Niche
Largillierre, a portrait artist, also excelled in still life painting. This particular work draws inspiration from 17th-century Flemish and Dutch art, featuring a partridge and fruit displayed in a niche. The artist's use of light makes it stand apart.
Young Ladies on the Banks of the Seine in Summer
Courbet's "Young Women on the Banks of the Seine" is a groundbreaking painting that depicts a group of young women enjoying a summer day. This realistic and sensual scene, unconventional for its time, caused a scandal upon its exhibition in 1857.
