Artists in the Country: Three Generations of Americans at Giverny- 09:30AM to 11:00AM

Artists had worked in the Normandy village of Giverny since the early nineteenth century, but between 1887 and World War I, it blossomed as an international art colony thanks largely to a flood of American artists. Three successive waves of arrivals each pictured the village, its surroundings, and the rural life it supported in distinctive ways that illustrate the evolution of Impressionism in American art. This lecture examines the colorful work and the lives of the Americans in Giverny over a quarter century.
