Parisians Enjoying the Pare Monceau Was Included in the Fourth Rewald

Monet chooses to develop in the absence of volume and space definition" (Kermit Champa, Studies in Early Impressionism, New Haven and London, 1973, p. 13 ). The flatness in the foreground conflicts with the space behind. Monet is on the verge of a stylistic conflict of interests that took him nearly a decade to resolve. During the eighties he experimented with many motifs and variations in style to overcome the contra dictions that began to appear in the late seventies. By the nineties he had discovered subjects that provided the beginnings of a solution to the conflict between two- and three-dimensional interests in his work. Parisians Enjoying the Pare Monceau was included in the fourth Impressionist exhibition in 1879, the year that "Impressionist" was dropped from the title : "After having originally been the one who started the group on its exhibitions, Monet had little by little abandoned active participation in the preparation of these shows, which had been taken over by the more or less opposed factions of Renoir and Degas. But Caillebotte would not allow his friend to abstain altogether. While Monet did not even leave Vetheuil to look after his own interests, Caillebotte took care of everything, borrowed pictures from Monet's collectors, looked after the frames, wrote eager letters and tried to rouse his friend's courage" (John Rewald, The His tory of Impressionism, New York, l 973, p. 42 l-42 3 ).

Seitz Museumof MotfwnArt ARCHIVE Claude Monet was the purest and most characteristic master of Impressionism. The fundamental principle of his art was a new, wholly perceptual observation of the most fleeting aspects of nature — of moving clouds and water, sun and shadow, rain and snow, mist and fog, dawn and sunset. Over a period of almost seventy years, from the late 1850s to his death in 1926, Monet must have pro duced close to 3,000 paintings, the vast majority of which were landscapes, seascapes, and river scenes. As his involvement with nature became more com plete, he turned from general representations of season and light to paint more specific, momentary, and transitory effects of weather and atmosphere. Late in the seventies he began to repeat his subjects at different seasons of the year or moments of the day, and in the nineties this became a regular procedure that resulted in his well-known "series " — Haystacks, Poplars, Cathedrals, Views of the Thames, Water ERRATA Lilies, etc.

sargent, monet... and manet Elaine Kilmurray In December 2006, I went to Paris to look at a cache of over a thousand letters written to Claude Monet by fellow artists (Caillebotte, Mary Cassatt, Cézanne, Manet, Pissarro, Renoir, Rodin, Sisley), writers (Octave Mirbeau, Gustave Geffroy) and his principal dealer (Paul Durand-Ruel) that had remained in the collection of Monet’s descendents and were about to be auctioned. They had passed through generations of the Monet family and many were unreleased and/or unpublished. Those of us working on the John Singer Sargent catalogue raisonné project were particularly interested in seventeen letters from Sargent to Monet. There has always been a sense of the provisional in accounts of the relationship between the two artists, a scarcity of fixed points and an absence of detail. We wanted to see how illuminating these letters were and how helpful they might be in filling lacunae and deepening our understanding. The timing was fortuitous: we were engaged on research for Volume V of the catalogue raisonné, in which we would catalogue Sargent’s most ‘Impressionist’ paintings. At the Artcurial auction house, I spoke to Thierry Bodin, who had done initial transcriptions of all the letters for the sale catalogue to a daunting deadline. The members of the catalogue raisonné team have struggled with Sargent’s writing (especially when in French, Italian or Spanish) for decades, and it was gratifying to hear from M. Bodin that, while Octave Mirbeau’s tight, closely worked hand had given him the most trouble, Sargent’s had come a close second.

When our company was established 30 years ago we’d have never thought to have published 30 catalogues by now. Master drawings, watercolours and pastels of the 16th to the 19th centuries have always been our passion and we have sold a great number to national and international institutions and private collectors. Some of the sheets have been impor- tant, others less so, but each has been special in its own way and added something to our knowledge and understanding of its author. The art market is shifting. The supply of Old Masters recedes and the 21st century begins to make itself felt. We believe the time is ripe to expand into the field of early 20th-century drawings. Our commitment to works on paper is an interest shared with many collectors, curators, scholars and colleagues. We owe much to their generous counsel and to the supportive intellectual exchanges, close working relationships and friendships that have developed. We are extremely grateful to Gerhard Kehlenbeck for his tireless research and his perceptive and wonderfully readable catalogue entries. We would also like to thank Karoline von Kügelgen for her invaluable support and expertise.

From the Director's Desk
N64980_TextA:N64980_TextA 9/3/09 11:34 AM Page 1 From the Director’s Desk ith great pleasure the National Gallery looks forward to the open- 2 ing of The Robert and Jane Meyerhoff Collection: Selected Works. W Shedding New Light on For almost ﬁve decades, through their remarkable acuity, exhaustive study, The Old Musician and close relationships with the artists, the Meyerhoffs amassed one of the world’s outstanding collections of postwar art. We are deeply grateful that 14 this great collection has been promised, and many works already donated, Gifts and to the Gallery, and are excited that much of it will soon be on view to the Acquisitions public in the upcoming exhibition. 30 One of the Gallery’s great masterworks, The Old Musician, 1862, by Exhibitions Edouard Manet, has spent more than two years undergoing extensive 38 treatment in our conservation lab. Thick layers of discolored varnish have casva been removed, returning one of Manet’s most ambitious early works to its original vibrant state. The story of this remarkable transformation is detailed in this issue’s feature article, written by Kimberly Jones, associate curator of French paintings, and Ann Hoenigswald, senior conservator of paintings. This issue also celebrates the thirtieth anniversary of casva, the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts. Founded in 1979 with its own distinguished board of advisors from universities and museums throughout the country, casva sponsors the study of the visual arts through fellowships, research, publications, and scholarly meetings. The Center draws on the spectrum of the Gallery’s resources but is not limited to the study of areas represented in the collection.
