A new arrival at the Musée d'Orsay: Gustave Caillebotte's 'Boating Party' • FRANCE 24 English

It was one of the last impressionist masterpieces still in private hands, but Gustave Caillebotte's painting "Boating Party" is now part of France's national collection. The purchase was made possible thanks to a €43 million donation from the luxury group LVMH. We report on its arrival at its new home, the Musée d'Orsay.
We also learn more about one of the Silk Road’s most enchanting landscapes, as an exhibition at the Louvre shines a light on the cultural heritage of Uzbekistan.
Plus, we check out a show that invites visitors to get up close and personal with the sculptures, and an escape game at the Opéra Garnier makes sleuths of the general public - with shades of Arsène Lupin-style intrigue.
