Breaking the Frame: Rise of the Impressionists

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

In Part 2 of our Impressionism series, we leave the floating world of Japan behind and step into the bustling studios, salons, and sun-drenched riverbanks of 19th-century France. This time, we meet the artists who dared to defy the rules (Monet, Morisot, Manet, Degas, Renoir, Cassatt) and the dealer, Paul Durand-Ruel, who bet everything on their vision.

We’ll explore how these painters broke with tradition to capture the modern world around them…and how their movement spread, against all odds, to American collectors, museums, and artists.
