Stuck Inside for Twenty Years (1846-67): An Unfinished Masterpiece by Theodore Rousseau in The Met
Monday, January 4 at 7 PM over Zoom
Join CBE member Asher Miller, a curator in The Met's Department of European Paintings, for an in-depth discussion of Theodore Rousseau’s enigmatic painting, The Forest in Winter at Sunset. This overlooked masterpiece of nineteenth-century French art originated as a reminiscence of a single walk in the woods. It is both self-reflective and a reflection on the power of nature, one that lingered unfinished in the painter's studio for two decades until his death in 1867.
