At the end of the 19th century, Paris thrived as the arts and culture capital of the world. The Eiffel Tower was built, the Moulin Rouge opened, and the streets were teeming with artists who were drawn to the city for artistic inspiration. This talk by Assistant Curator Rachael Holstege will take a closer look at artworks in the museum’s collection featuring scenes of Paris, and will offer a glimpse into the city at the turn of the century.
