Impressionists in London

French Artists in Exile 1870-1904. The EY Exhibition. Edited by Caroline Corbeau-Parsons. Texts by Cécilie Champy-Vinas, Isabelle Collet, Cyrille Sciama, Amélie Simier and Bertrand Tillier. Translated from the French by Christine Rolland. On occasion of the exhibition in Tate Britain, London, 2. November 2017- 7 May 2018, and in Petit Palais, Paris, 20 June - 14 October 2018. This title charts the story of the French artists who took refuge in London during and after the devastating Franco-Prussian War and the Paris Commune. Following these traumatic events there was a creative flourishing in London as the exiles responded to British culture and social life - regattas, processions, parks, and of course the Thames. New texts from a range of leading writers draw out key figures and events from this remarkable period, revealing the artists’ connections with patrons, art dealers and British artists, and considering both the contribution they made to British art and art education and the impact their cross-Channel experiences had on French art. Lavishly illustrated throughout with over 170 beautiful works, this hardback exhibition catalogue shows us London seen through French eyes and illuminates a key period in this enduringly popular movement. 272 Seiten mit über 170 Farb- und s/w-Abb., Großformat, gebunden (Tate Enterprises 2017) obere Rückenkante leicht bestoßen/upper spine slightly bumped
