Monet to Matisse
January 31 - April 4, 2010

On view in the Main Galleries

Image 

Back by popular demand are all of the paintings you've been asking for! Come see the show that shattered all attendance records at the Allentown Art Museum last spring and re-discover the Dixon's outstanding permanent collection of late nineteenth and early twentieth century French paintings. Featuring an all-star lineup of works by the leaders of the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist movements, including Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Mary Cassatt, Paul Gauguin, and Henri Matisse, Monet to Matisse takes a closer look at some of the Dixon's most beloved paintings and their provenance.

 

Made possible in part by Hyde Family Foundations, Dr. Rose M. Johnston, Bank of America & Merrill Lynch.
