Das intime Museum ist in einer 1852 errichteten ehemaligen Orangerie der Tuilerien untergebracht und wurde nach Claude Monets eigenen Vorgaben umgestaltet, um seinen monumentalen Nymphéas-Zyklus im natürlichen Oberlicht zu präsentieren. In zwei ovalen Sälen hängen acht Seerosen-Gemälde von insgesamt rund 91 Metern Länge. Im Untergeschoss vereint die Sammlung Jean Walter und Paul Guillaume 148 impressionistische und moderne Gemälde – von Renoir und Cézanne bis Picasso, Matisse, Modigliani, Derain und Soutine.
