an impression of her pictures

 

Which pictures did Berthe Morisot exhibit in 1882?
On this page you will see an accounted impression of the 9+4hc?=13? pictures that Berthe Morisot probably exhibited at the 7th โ€˜impressionistโ€™ exposition of 1882 (catalogue numbers 92-100+hc4?). Morisot exhibited probably 10 oil paintings and 3 pastels. She often depicted women and her little daughter Julie Manet. Note her sketchy style, her use of browns and subdued colours. I render the pictures in a more thematical order, by format and by used technique. See link for explanation of theย subscriptions. Note: If you double click on the first picture (of a group) and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. Enjoy!

Often the indentification of a paintingย is โ€˜uncertainโ€™. Sometimes to โ€˜compareโ€™ another picture is given that is (probably) similar to the painting that was exhibited.ย For explanation of the subscriptions,ย see here. My main sources for the pictures are the-athenaeum.org (=iR2), WikiCommons (=iR6) and Google images (=iR10). Sometimes I forgot the source (=iRx).
