Art history lecture by Thomas R. Hoffmann
Exactly 150 years ago, a group of artists used the studio of the photographer Nadar in Paris to exhibit pictures together.
A critic took the title of a painting by Claude Monet as an opportunity to disparagingly refer to these painters as Impressionists. The name of a new art movement was born. The common denominator of all the artists participating in this exhibition was to capture motifs spontaneously and directly from nature on canvas. They are still known today as Impressionists.
The anniversary of the exhibition has inspired art historian Thomas R. Hoffmann to present the success story of Impressionism in a lecture on the basis of well-known and lesser-known artists.
