An
exhibition of European masterworks, Corot to Picasso,
features nearly sixty selections from the renowned collection
of European art. More than a roll-call of the great European
artists of the past two hundred years, this show supplies
an overview of European art of that era, including large history
paintings, intimate genre scenes, neoclassical portraits,
impressionist landscapes, and still-lifes. Following a strategy
developed by the museum's first director, Alfred Vance Churchill,
the museum's European collection traces the development of
modern art from the French Revolution to the early twentieth
century.
Highlights
include work by Vanessa Bell, Paul Cézanne, Gustave Courbet,
Edgar Degas, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Auguste Rodin, Georges
Seurat, among many others.
