Impressionist Treasures: The Ordrupgaard Collection

By Paul Lang and Paul Lang

A spectacular overview of French painting from Delacroix to C zanne, along with superb Danish Golden Age paintings of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, are presented in this lavish volume, which accompanies a major exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada. The works, which are from the collection of the Ordrupgaard Museum near Copenhagen, showcase various stages in the careers of painters such as Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Gustave Courbet, Camille Pissarro, Claude Monet, Alfred Sisley, Paul Gauguin, C.W. Eckersberg, and Vilhelm Hammersh i. While French impressionist, postimpressionist, and Danish works are the book's focus, other--often contradictory--art movements of 19th-century France, including the Barbizon School and realism, are also well represented, and all the paintings are fully described and illustrated.
