Description
|
|
|
|
A pupil of Whistler and a friend of Degas, Renoir, and Manet, Walter Sickert introduced impressionism and postimpressionism to a younger generation of British painters in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and it was Venice that inspired some of his most ravishing work, and where he established his artistic identity. Yet surprisingly, his paintings of Venice had previously never been shown together. This catalog, from the exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery in March 2009, presents 60 superb paintings and drawings from Venice, arranged under the headings "Views and Vistas" and "Portraits, Figures and Nudes."
