Introduction to the Impressionists exhibition in DGS

How did a small group of young artists, whose paintings were initially met with rejection, come to be known as perhaps the most popular art movement of the modern era? To mark the Museums Barberini's tenth anniversary, the major anniversary exhibition The Impressionists: Monet, Morisot, Renoir, and Their Network retells the story of Impressionism: as a story of friendships and patrons, courageous collectors, influential art dealers and critics—and of personal relationships that carried an artistic revolution from Paris out into the world.
