Baltimore Museum of Art

This fall, visit Monet's lush gardens, meet Renoir's father, and admire Manet's favorite model and the most scandalous face of the 19th century. A sweeping exhibition of radiant paintings by more than a dozen of the world's most beloved artists, Faces of Impressionism is sure to be one of the season's highlights!

Presenting 56 signature paintings by Monet, Renoir, Manet, Cassatt, Degas, Cézanne, and many other luminaries of 19th-century French art, Faces of Impressionism is the first exhibition to explore how these celebrated artists revolutionized the art of portrait painting. Featured are probing individual and group portraits, figures in landscape settings, and self-portraits.

Drawn from the collections of more than 30 museums from across the country, Faces of Impressionism premieres in Baltimore, the exclusive East Coast venue, before traveling to The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and The Cleveland Museum of Art.

Faces of Impressionism is sponsored in Baltimore by Deutsche Bank and Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown.

This exhibition is organized by Sona Johnston, BMA Curator of Painting & Sculpture Before 1900, and is accompanied by a 168-page catalogue, copublished by Rizzoli, which is available at The BMA Shop.
