The 15 Best Museums in Paris, From the Louvre to the Louis Vuitton Foundation | Condé Nast Traveler
"As its name suggests, the Petit Palais is the little sister of the Grand Palais, but don't be fooled: the building is still plenty stately. Designed by Charles Girault for the World’s Fair of 1900, the building became a museum in 1902. Its architectural grandeur was meant to pay tribute to the arts and the city of Paris, initially housing decorative murals and sculptures. Since there is free entry to the permanent collection, many visitors simply come to take in the quiet and sunshine in the garden." - Melissa Liebling-Goldberg, Lindsey Tramuta
