Intimate Details: Prints By James Tissot Opens October 5 at Zimmerli Art Museum
Opening October 5, Intimate Details: Prints by James Tissot celebrates the Zimmerli Art Museum's recent acquisition of several exquisite etchings by this noted chronicler of both Belle-Epoque Paris and Victorian London. Even as artists increasingly focused on depicting aspects of contemporary life during the late 19th century, Tissot's careful attention to portraying the most current fashions, furnishings, and social activities in his paintings stood out. One critic even claimed that 'a picture by M. Tissot will be enough for archaeologists of the future to reconstitute our epoch.' On November 5, curator-led exhibition tours take place during Art After Hours: First Tuesdays, which is free and open to the public.
