"It's a wonderful day, we've got thousands of people here- it's the real spirit of San Francisco," said Thomas Campbell, Director and CEO, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.
"The arts are unifying our country, I think it's going to be the salvation of our country. When we can come together and forget our differences, be inspired together, laugh together, cry together, being inspired," said Representative Nancy Pelosi.
"The main value we can find in years of exchanges between the U.S. and France is the dignity of human beings, it's most important," said Francois Lecointre, Grand Chancellor of the Order of the Legion of Honour, France.
"It was true, the vision of the founder - Alma and Aldolph Spreckels - this museum was forged in the aftermath of the 1906 Earthquake and WWI, they had the vision to create this museum," Campbell said.
