Berthe Morisot, a woman in a man’s world

Berthe Morisot (1841-1895) is one of the major figure of the Impressionism. She was a member and one of the founder of the Parisian impressionist movement. Respected and admired by the greatest artists of that time (Manet, Monet, Degas, Renoir, Fantin Latour, or Pissaro) with who she exhibited her work regularly. But her true value was never fully recognized by the public and the institutions. The exhibition at the Musée d'Orsay is a tribute to her work and a unique opportunity to discover or rediscover the work of this amazing artist

Petite affice My tips for your trip

My tips for your trip to Giverny (Monet’s gardens)

Here are my tips to help you organize your visit to Giverny (Monet's gardens). My opinion is that you can easily go to Giverny and visit the place on your own, especially if you're staying in Paris long enough and don't have to rush to see all what you've planned to see and visit in Paris and around. Giverny is surely among the top sites to visit during your first or second stay in Paris.
