Landscapes Through Time with David Dunlop - Season 1 Episode 5 Americans in Giverny
David follows in the footsteps of the American artists who formed an art colony in Giverny in the 1880-1920s, drawn by the creative magnetic influence of Claude Monet. The tour will include visits to the sites, hotels, gardens and hillsides frequented by American Impressionists, including the Hotel Baudy. In the last quarter of the 19th century, artists from Paris escaped the uncomfortable heat of the Parisian summers by train to the surrounding villages along the Seine to form art colonies. The American artists formed a well-integrated colony in Giverny and explored an American style of Impressionism that was then exported to the United States at the turn of the century. John Singer Sargent, Lila Cabot, Theodore Robinson and Theodore Butler were among those to become friends with Monet; Butler became his son-law when he married Monet’s stepdaughter(s). David will explore the similarities and differences between French Impressionism and American Impressionism as he paints on the hillside above Giverny, popular with Theodore Robinson and Willard Metcalf.
