Picturing France looks at French painting from 1830 to 1900. Not a chronological overview, it instead travels region to region—from Brittany to Provence. The journey takes a multifaceted look at art and culture, exploring most of the nineteenth century's major stylistic trends (from realism to post-impressionism) and artists (including Rousseau, Corot, Manet, Degas, Cassatt, Morisot, Monet, Renoir, Seurat, Gauguin, Cézanne, and Van Gogh). Includes 150 page booklet, a separate classroom guide, with activities, student handouts, a timeline, and resource information, 40 slides, an image CD with more than 75 works of art, 20 color study prints, and a wall map.
