Exhibition Opening: Manet & Morisot at The Legion of Honor
Villa Albertine is proud to promote the upcoming Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco exhibition, Manet & Morisot.
Experience the first major exhibition dedicated to the artistic exchange at the heart of Impressionism, and the friendship between French Impressionist Edouard Manet and American-Born artist Berthe Morisot. We invite you to visit the Legion of Honor to experience these groundbreaking artists and explore themes of intercultural friendship and the reciprocal artistic exchange.
Until now, their story has been told primarily as one of Manet’s influence on his female colleague and occasional model, Morisot. Manet & Morisot sets the record straight, exploring these artists’ mutual influence and parallel evolution. From their first encounter and Manet’s impact early in Morisot’s career to his final years, when he increasingly emulated her subjects, colors, and even her free, open brushstrokes, this exhibition invites you on a journey through a friendship that shaped the course of modern art.
On view through March 1st, 2026.
