Southern Light: American Impressionist Women
"Southern Light: American Impressionist Women" from the Huntsville Museum of Art and its recently-acquired Sellars Collection features 50 paintings and two bronze sculptures by American women artists. Many works are influenced by French Impressionism. In an era when women were discouraged from taking on “masculine” subjects, the Impressionist repertoire of pastoral landscapes, floral still lifes, and domestic interiors made a pleasing counterpoint to the gritty subjects of urban realists and industrial scene painters.
