What pictures did Attendu show at the 1st ‘impressionist’ exposition? Antoine-Ferdinand Attendu showed 6 art-works at the 1st ‘impressionist’ exposition in 1874 (catalogue numbers 7-12). None of the works were mentioned, let even described. Most of his works are not dated. 3 of these works were loans, but of most of his works the provenance is not known. All this makes it impossible to identify the works he exhibited. So, all the given suggestions are very uncertain or just to compare. (For no.9 I render 3 options). See the link for an account. See link for an explanation of the subscriptions. See for the used sources below at the main page about Antoine-Ferdinand Attendu. See also the thematical overview of his pictures.

Not exhibited: Patry/Robbins suggest ‘possibly’ this pastel was exhibited as no.7 (an oil painting) or no. 11 (a watercolour). Because of the different medium, I don’t think it was exhibited.
