Introduction:
On this page you will find an impression of the art-works that Alphonse Legros exhibited at the Salon (=S), it’s successor the Salon de la Société des Artistes Français (=SdAF), the Salon des Refusés (=SdR) and the Exposition Universelle (=EU). Some of these works were also exhibited at the second ‘impressionist’ exposition in 1876 (=2IE-1876). For many works he exhibited, I don’t have a suggestion. Some suggesions are (very) uncertain. I render the pictures by form, in a more thematical order and chronological. 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 Alphonse Legros. Note: If you double click on the first (of a cluster of) pictures and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. On a smartphone or laptop you can also zoom in. Enjoy!
