Turning in Paris

[Lou Jacobs]

A last minute question: We are on the train from Cornwall to London, transferring to the train to Paris this afternoon. (We’ve been hiking on the South West Coast Path in Cornwall for the past 8 days, which has been spectacular!).
I wonder if anyone has any knowledge of/recommendations about galleries or turner’s studios in Paris that might be worthwhile to add to our list of things to see over the next five days? Thanks!

Ashley, your home is spectacular! We hiked down the coast from Newquay to Penzance. Absolutely gorgeous landscape and lovely people!

Hughie, thank you so much for the suggestions. I got excited by the Mayaro Gallery listing until I realized it was a bit dated. Yes otherwise we would have to travel outside Paris and I’m afraid that’s not possible with our few days here. But I tremendously appreciate your research!
