Published to accompany the landmark exhibition at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, De Cézanne à Matisse: Chefs-d’œuvre de la Fondation Barnes presents one of the most celebrated collections of modern art assembled in the twentieth century. Drawn from the renowned Barnes Foundation in Pennsylvania, the catalogue brings together masterpieces by Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, Vincent van Gogh, Georges Seurat, Pablo Picasso and many of the defining figures of modern European painting.
Richly illustrated throughout, the volume documents a rare moment when highlights from the Barnes collection travelled to France, offering audiences an exceptional opportunity to encounter works that had remained largely inaccessible outside the United States. Alongside extensive colour reproductions, the catalogue includes scholarly essays examining the formation of Albert C. Barnes’s collection, its educational mission and its enduring influence on the history of modern art.
An important reference for collectors, historians and admirers of modern painting, this museum publication captures both the exceptional quality of the Barnes holdings and the intellectual vision behind one of the world's most influential private collections.
