Abstract:
One of the major goals of the Museum is to increase the public’s knowledge of the major art collections of the Southeastern United States through exhibitions. In attempting to accomplish that goal, the Museum will exhibit 45 paintings by French artists from the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, Virginia. The paintings date from the seventieth through the twentieth centuries. Examples of the periods of realism, the French Baroque, rococo, romanticism, impressionism, and post-impressionism are all represented.
