2nd ‘impressionist’ exposition

1876

 

Introduction:
In 1876 the ‘2e exposition de peinture‘ was held in Paris. This exposition is now mostly called the 2nd ‘impressionist’ exposition. There were 19 partakers. The catalogue rendered the numbers 1-252, but in reality there were about 299 art-works exhibited. Several techniques / media were used. On this page you will find 214 pictures of these exhibited art-works. See the accounts of the partaking artists and the clarification at the bottom of this page. If you double click on the first picture and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. On a smartphone or laptop you can also zoom in. Enjoy!

 

Clarification:
On this page you find 214 suggestions for the about 299 art-works that were exhibited at the 2nd ‘impressionist’ exposition in 1876. Note: the given suggestions vary from certain (=!), to almost certain (=?!), to uncertain (=?), to very uncertain (=??), to most uncertain (=???), to compare (=compare:) with another work of the artist, to compare with a similar work from another artist or even a photo. Sometimes (85x) I have no suggestion at all, namely nos. 5 +6 +7 +8 (Béliard), nos. 11 +13 +15 +16 (Bureau); nos. 67-1 +67-2 +68-1 +70-2 +72-1 +72+hc (Desboutin), nos. 73 +74 +75 +76 +77 + 78 +79 +80 (Jacques François), no. 83-5-2 (Legros), nos. 93 +94 +95 +96 +97 +98 +99 +100 +101 (Levert), nos. 102 +104 +110 +111 +114 +115 +116 +118 +121 +123 +124-2 +124-3 +124-4 +124-5 +125 +126-2 +127-2 +129 +130 +131 +133 (Lepic), nos. 141 +142 +145 +146 +147 (J.B. Millet), nos. 183 +184 +185 +186 +188 +190 +191 +193 +194 +195-1 +195-2 +195-4 +195-5 +195-6 +196-1 +196-2 +196-3 (Léon Ottin), nos.233 + 236 (Rouart), nos. 245 +246 +247 +248 +249 +250 +251 +252 (Tillot). Helas, of several options I could only find a picture in black and white, namely no.31 of Cals; nos. 60 +63 +66 of Desboutin; nos. 124 +126 +128 of Lepic; no.140+144 of J.B. Millet; no.164 of Monet; nos. 167 +169 +172 +177 of Morisot; no.232 of Rouart. The following works I render to compare are insufficient: no.235 of Rouart. See the accounts of the partaking artists.
