That really is an extraordinarily well designed website. I'm really sorry for anybody who does not have a high speed connection.
As for the exposition itself, the critics have been saying that an exposition of this quality only happens about once every 30 years.

What superb pictures. What a master of colour.
We have a Gauguin exhibition just opened at Tate Modern which is getting rave reviews.

Well, today was the last day. The exhibition remained open 24 hours a day for the past three days, but even people getting in line at 4 am usually had to wait for 2 or 3 hours. I considered doing it and then abandoned the thought.
I think they said that there were almost 920,000 visitors, making it the second biggest exhibition in French history. The biggest was the King Tutankhamon exhibition in 1967 which attracted 1.2 million visitors, but it lasted 6 1/2 months instead of 4 months.
