BERTHE MORISOT – “UNE FINESSE FRAGONARDIENNE’
Lecturer: Lois Oliver
Renoir considered Impressionist Berthe Morisot “the last elegant and ‘feminine’ artist that we have had since Fragonard.” Complementing an exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery, this lecture traces Morisot’s engagement with eighteenth-century culture, and highlights what set her apart from her predecessors and contemporaries.
Dr Lois Oliver studied History of Art at the Courtauld Institute. After working at the V&A and the National Gallery, she is currently Curator of Paintings and Sculpture at the Royal Academy.
