As it stood in 1927

What Musée de l'Orangerie looked like in its prime.

A low, rectangular classical stone building with a carved triangular pediment over a central arched entrance framed by paired, deeply fluted columns; the north face is largely solid ashlar while the long south side is a continuous glass wall of tall vertical panes. Pale beige limestone, a shallow cornice and sculpted pediment reliefs define the entrance; the building stretches lengthwise along a tree-lined promenade and has skylights above the interior oval galleries.
