About this event
The famed art historian Henri Focillon once praised Marie Bracquemond (1840–1916) as one of “Les Dames de l’Impressionisme” (the Ladies of Impressionism), along with Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt. This talk by Elizabeth C. Childs , the Etta and Mark Steinberg Professor of Art History at Washington University in St. Louis, reintroduces her stunning career as an innovative painter, designer, and ceramicist—and as of 1877, as a bold Impressionist, drawn to the scenes and vibrant colors of the outdoors.
