Andrea Bundonis, President of the
Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art commented,
"Since beginning our collaboration with the MFA nearly two
years ago, our
diverse audience has responded overwhelmingly to the Monet collection. The
precursors
to the Impressionists, the Barbizon School painters created lyric
compositions inspired by their
love of nature that include idyllic scenes of
fields and forests, or haunting views of river banks
at twilight. This exhibition offers an overview of the rise
of landscape art in nineteenth century
France -- one of the most remarkable
artistic revolutions of all time. At no other time in history
were so many
artists working so intently to capture the light and atmosphere of nature,
