Monet to Matisse: French Moderns, 1850–1950
About the Exhibition
The exhibition, presented by PNC Bank, is an exhibition of over one hundred masterworks with more than half from the Brooklyn Museum's esteemed European collection. The exhibition highlights France's role as the epicenter of modernism during a time of profound social, intellectual, and political change. Drawing from its own distinguished collection, the Birmingham Museum of Art has nearly doubled the size of the exhibition, offering a broader and more comprehensive exploration of this transformative period in art history.
