Скачать или смотреть A Closer Look: Manet & Morisot

Step inside the friendship of two artists at the heart of the Impressionist movement: Édouard Manet (1832–1883) and Berthe Morisot (1841–1895). Explore their mutual influence and inspiration as colleagues and collaborators, painter and model, collectors of each other’s work, and, following Morisot’s marriage to Manet’s brother, family. Complementing the exhibition "Manet & Morisot," and addressing several works in our permanent collection, this lecture is delivered by Emily A. Beeny, a Manet specialist, and the exhibition’s originating curator.
