Impressionism, a historical reconstruction:
Berthe Morisot
(1841-1895)
at the 8th ‘impressionist’ exposition in 1886
an accounted impression of her art-works
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).
