40 highlights of French Impressionist painting and drawing in the Fitzwilliam Museum
Introduction
The collection of works by French Impressionist painters in the Fitzwilliam Museum – some hundred and more paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures – is one of the finest in the UK. These web pages present some of the highlights of the collection, as well as three magnificent works by Cézanne and Seurat's large-scale study for 'A Sunday Afternoon on the Grande Jatte', on long-term loan to the Museum from the Provost and Fellows of King's College, Cambridge, to whom they were bequeathed by the economist, John Maynard Keynes.
