Preparing for a visit to VMFA-French Impressionism
Posted in Uncategorized on October 1st, 2008 and tagged Impressionism, VMFAIn preparation for our upcoming field trip to Richmond to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts I would like us to study a little about French impressionism. Next thursday you will have to turn in a small project on French impressionism. We will be doing a reproduction painting of a famous impressionist work of art. It won’t be judged on its artistic qualities but on the effort that is apparently put into it. On an index card that we will attach to the bottom, you must give the following information about the painting:
Artist name – L’artiste s’appelle
Date of the painting – C’est du 1870
The name of the painting- Le tableau s’appelle_______________
And a brief description in English. (2-3 sentences that will help people understand the painting)
