Wonderful Description of a Wonderful Exhibit

A Day in the Country was an exhibit mounted in the early '80's, using the theme that the Impressionist style of painting revolved around the dynamic of Parisian artists portraying the landscapes nearby their city. Viewing the exhibit at the Chicago Art Institute with an expert guide, we felt that we received full benefit from the collection. A memorable event. The book built around the exhibit takes an understanding of Impressionism much deeper, involving not only personalities and landscapes, but also the international political dynamics as well. Who would have thought of Impressionism as a French nationalistic statement? There is far too much in the book to go into, even if I was an art expert (which I am not). But, I am VERY pleased to own this, and will treasure the information that increases my appreciation of a favorite art form.
