Peter Doig at the Musée d'Orsay

In this HENI Talks, Peter Doig and the Musée d’Orsay have brought together, in one of the museum’s iconic domed rooms, a group of large paintings that were made over the two decades the artist lived in the Caribbean nation of Trinidad and a selection of works he has chosen from the Musée d’Orsay’s collection.
His selection is consistently unpredictable, and include works by Cézanne, Manet, Seurat, Pissarro, Renoir, Gaugin and Monet, represented not by a landscape but by “Camille on Her Death Bed” (1879).
