What art-works did Berthe Morisot exhibit in 1886? On this page you will see an accounted impression of the about 29 art-works that Berthe Morisot probably exhibited at the 8th ‘impressionist’ exposition of 1886 (catalogue numbers 82-94bis). Morisot exhibited also series of drawings, watercolours and fans, it is uncertain how many, but I assume 3×6. I render the pictures in a more thematical order, by format and by used technique. 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 painting is ‘uncertain’. Sometimes to ‘compare’ another picture is given that is (probably) similar to the painting that was exhibited. For explanation of the subscriptions, 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).
