France is a sort of Mecca for art lovers with the country’s numerous art museums and galleries showcasing some of the finest works by the greats of the art world. One such site that is definitely worth visiting is the Agen Fine Arts Museum which showcases not one, but five paintings from Goya. The museum can be found in the French commune of Agen which can be easily reached from a Villeneuve Sur Lot hotel such as Le Moulin de Madame. This hotel Villeneuve Sur Lot lies along the banks of River Lot and is a perfect starting point for your adventures in the French countryside.
Housed in a charming building, the Agen Fine Arts Museum takes visitors on a fascinating journey of discovery amidst a truly enchanting setting. Donated by Count of Chaudordy, the museum’s five Goya paintings are a big draw, namely “The Balloon”, “Self-portrait”, “Caprichos”, “Sketch of Ferdinand VII” and “Messe des Relevailles”. There is much more to see at the Agen Fine Arts Museum with such exhibits as a Roman Venus made from white marble and French porcelain dating back to the 18th century among the items of interest that provide a unique insight into the world of art.
