All aboard! Explore Edouard Manet’s painting, “The Railway,” in this video from the Children’s Video Tour. A billowing, white cloud of smoke—steam rising from the train station below—hides the tracks of the famous Gare Saint-Lazare, which was the biggest and busiest train station in Paris during the 19th century. On view in the West Building, Main Floor, Gallery 89. http://www.nga.gov/fcgi-bin/tinfo_f?object=43624
