French Impressionists: Cézanne, Monet, Renoir

Dear All,

The exhibition showcases works from the Museum Langmatt - founded by Jenny and Sidney Brown, who started focusing on French art in around Protected content .

Over many years, the Browns systematically built up a collection of French Impressionism and its forerunners that is representative in its scope whilst at the same time reflecting their personal tastes. The couple’s collecting was not only a private passion but can also be seen in the context of the altered, modernized self-image of the Swiss industrial bourgeoisie.
