Join us for a slide show by local artist Marlene Aron of the beautiful and inspiring art of five women artists of the 1800s: Mary Cassatt, Berthe Morisot, Marie Bracquemond, Eva Gonzales and Camille Claudel.
These artists exhibited their works in the Salon and the World Exposition in Paris, three of them showing their paintings alongside Pissarro, Degas, Renoir and Monet in the first Impressionist exhibitions in the early 1870s. They painted their family, children, friends and lovers, along with scenes of gardens, forests and landscapes. Take a journey through the artistry and lives of some of the movers and shakers of the Impressionist movement.
