Description: Following a two-year renovation, the galleries devoted to impressionism and
post-impressionism will reopen to the public on January 28, 2012. Among the
world’s greatest collections of paintings by Manet, Monet, Renoir, Cézanne,
Van Gogh, and Gauguin, the Gallery’s later nineteenth-century French
paintings will return to public view in a freshly conceived installation design.
Come see the “high impressionism” of the 1870s marked by sun-dappled
landscapes and scenes of suburban leisure; the fantastic, sophisticated color
experiments of late Monet; Cézanne’s genius in landscape, still-life, and
figure painting; the bold innovations of Van Gogh and Gauguin; and the
Parisian avant-garde circa 1900: Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Modigliani,
and Rousseau.
