Discover the French history of one of art’s most significant and foundational genres of painting in the Toledo Museum of Art’s newest exhibition, From the Collection: 300 Years of French Landscape Painting, opening Friday, July 17. Hand selected from the TMA’s collection, this special exhibit will survey the inspired, stunning works of French paintings. Begin with 17th century classicism and see the gradual, exciting transitions of shape, color and perspective, culminating in expressive, bold and avant-garde Fauvist interpretation by Derain. The exhibit will also feature one of TMA’s newest additions, Landscape with Plough (1877), a moody work by Charles-Francois Daubigny (French, 1817-1878), finished late in his life.
Through October 11. Toledo Museum of Art Gallery 18, 2445 Monroe St. 419-255-8000.
