Title: In the Meadow Artist: Auguste Renoir (French, Limoges 1841–1919 Cagnes-sur-Mer) Date: 1888–92 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 32 x 25 3/4 in. (81.3 x 65.4 cm) Classification: Paintings Credit Line: Bequest of Sam A. Lewisohn, 1951 Accession Number: 51.112.4 Between 1888 and 1892 Renoir painted a number of works in which the same pair of girls—the blonde wearing a white frock and the brunette a pink one—engage in leisurely pastimes. Here, they pick flowers; the same models appear at the piano in a painting now in the Museum's Lehman Collection (1975.1.201). These intimate genre scenes, which celebrate youthful innocence, found a ready market in the early 1890s. Text from: www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/437434

Title: A Woman Seated beside a Vase of Flowers (Madame Paul Valpinçon?) Artist: Edgar Degas (French, Paris 1834–1917 Paris) Date: 1865 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 29 x 36 1/2 in. (73.7 x 92.7 cm) Classification: Paintings Credit Line: H. O. Havemeyer Collection, Bequest of Mrs. H. O. Havemeyer, 1929 Accession Number: 29.100.128 Degas painted this work in the fall of 1865, after the Salon that presented his Scene of War in the Middle Ages and Manet’s Olympia. The remarkable composition destabilizes traditional categories of painting: it is neither a grand still life of flowers nor a portrait. The sitter is probably the wife of the artist’s schoolboy friend Paul Valpinçon, whose country house Degas immensely enjoyed visiting. Text from: www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/436121

Title: Landscape: The Parc Monceau Artist: Claude Monet (French, Paris 1840–1926 Giverny) Date: 1876 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 23 1/2 x 32 1/2 in. (59.7 x 82.6 cm) Classification: Paintings Credit Line: Bequest of Loula D. Lasker, New York City, 1961 Accession Number: 59.206 Situated on the boulevard de Courcelles in Paris and surrounded by fashionable town houses, the Parc Monceau was planned in the late eighteenth century in the form of an English garden. Monet painted three views of the park in the spring of 1876. This one, shown at the 1877 Impressionist exhibition, focuses on the swaths of green grass and blooming trees. The building visible at left in this painting also appears in two works from 1878, including one in the Museum’s collection (59.142). Text from: www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/437107

Title: Study for "A Sunday on La Grande Jatte" Artist: Georges Seurat (French, Paris 1859–1891 Paris) Date: 1884 Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 27 3/4 x 41 in. (70.5 x 104.1 cm) Classification: Paintings Credit Line: Bequest of Sam A. Lewisohn, 1951 Accession Number: 51.112.6 This is Seurat’s final study for his monumental painting of Parisians at leisure on an island in the Seine (Art Institute of Chicago). Contrasting pigments are woven together with small, patchy brushstrokes, whereas in the mural-sized park scene—which debuted two years later at the 1886 Impressionist exhibition—Seurat used tighter, dot-like dabs of paint, a technique which came to be known as Pointillism (from the French word point, or dot). He preferred the term Divisionism—the principle of separating color into small touches placed side-by-side and meant to blend in the eye of the viewer.
