Pompidou and Circumstance

I didn't think any museum could top the MoMA in terms of early 20th century art, but today's visit to the Centre Pompidou made me reconsider. We went through room after room of works by Matisse and Picasso (my personal faves), Braque, Dali, Miro, Kandinsky, Leger, and Giacometti, to name a few. And the view of Sacre Coeur from the fifth-floor gallery was to die for:


After our home-assembled dinner of spaghetti and meatballs (notice I didn't say cooked--the delis in our neighborhood are fantastic), we took a stroll to the Musée D'Orsay, which was open until 9:45 this evening. Although we'd had gelato after dinner, we felt that our real dessert was all those servings of Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh, Gaugin, and Cezanne. Anyone for poppies?
