BERTHE MORISOT

The virtuosos of the canvas

An episode from the series GREAT PAINTERS

Synopsis

A leading figure of Impressionism, Berthe Morisot established herself in an art world still largely dominated by men.

Close to Édouard Manet, Degas, Renoir, and Monet, she developed a luminous and daring style of painting, characterized by free brushwork, a bright palette, and intimate scenes of everyday life.

Long overshadowed by her contemporaries, Berthe Morisot is now recognized as one of the most innovative artists of her time and a major figure in modern painting.
