How did Impressionism begin? Discover the origins of the French art movement in a new look at the radical 1874 exhibition considered the birth of modern painting. A remarkable presentation of 130 works includes a rare reunion of many of the paintings first featured in the now-legendary exhibition. Revisit beloved paintings by Paul Cezanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir and meet their lesser-known contemporaries. Don't miss the unique chance to immerse yourself in the dynamic Parisian art scene of 1872-- the only American stop for this historic exhibition. Lunch afterwards, not included in trip price.
