Berthe Morisot: The First Lady of Impressionism

Rating:
Summary: A satisfying blend of artistic overview and biography.
Review: Berthe Morisot provides an excellent biography of the 'first lady' of Impressionism, a French female painter who remains the least known of the French Impressionists. Others have focussed on her works; this provides a satisfying blend of artistic overview and a focus on her life and times which brings to life her influences and creations.
