Berthe Morisot
Berthe Morisot (1841-1895) produced nearly 900 paintings and was the only woman among the original six Impressionists whose first group exhibition scandalized most of Paris. Higonnet draws on the artist's unpublished diaries and letters to create not only a portrait of a remarkable woman but also vivid portrayls of feminine culture in the late 19th century.
Berthe Morisot
A handsomely illustrated volume that provides new insight into one of the great women artists of the Impressionist circle
Berthe Morisot
The French nineteenth-century woman painter Berthe Morisot was held by her contemporaries to be the 'quintessential Impressionist'. She was an influential member of the Impressionist group, whose exhibitions she organized with her colleagues Monet, Renoir, Pissarro and Degas. This book considers her work in the context of the artistic and social debates of the time. It discusses the meaning that Baudelaire's famous dictum to paint 'the heroism of modern life' had for a woman artist painting in the changing city of Paris -- a very different city from the Paris of her male colleagues.

Berthe Morisot, the First Lady of Impressionism
Berthe Morisot was one of France's most distinguished female painters. Yet, although her work hangs in galleries around the western world, she remains the least well known of the French Impressionists. Mystery and myth have surrounded Morisot since her death a century ago. Her life was reputedly one of tranquil domesticity and genteel fulfillment, but nothing could be further from the truth. What was the nature of her relationship with Edouard Manet, the most controversial artist of his day - a liaison which dominated not only her artistic but also her personal life, and led her to marry his brother? Why, in spite of political and cultural connections, did she find happiness and public recognition so elusive? Was she descended from Fragonard? This biography, the first full-length examination of Morisot's life, explores these questions in the context of many other relationships and the dramatic social and political backcloth of her time, and reveals how she came to have an important place among the Impressionists.
