Description
This beautiful volume features a compendium of the Metropolitan Museum's finest European paintings dating from 1800 to 1920.
The focus is on French art of this period--of which the Museum possesses the most comprehensive collection outside of France--but extraordinary pictures by artists of other nationalities are also included.
Thanks to a succession of generous and discerning donors-- from the H.
O. Havemeyers to the Walter H. Annenbergs--this publication presents a history of painting in Paris from Prud'hon to Picasso, by way of Delacroix, Corot, Courbet, Manet, Monet, Degas, Cezanne, Seurat, and many others.
