Since the Musee d'Orsay is devoted to works from the second half of the 19th century, the 12 pieces in this book cover a period of great upheaval and revolution. Each painting is characteristic both of the artist and of the style, technique, subject matter and artistic movement concerned. | A note to the reader |
