The first part of the show was a great success - the exhibit was very well curated and it was not designed with showcasing blockbusters only; rather, it went length to explain how Impressionism came into fruition. It was thoughtfully assembled and was deeply thought provoking. That said, it did not mean that the show didn't have enough lustre and the second part is highly anticipated.
Below are the preview of a few highlights included in the exhibit, which will open on 25 September 2010 and will close on 18 January 2011, including the forward-looking canvases by Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, Henride Toulouse-Lautrec, Henri Rousseau. It also include some ornate pieces by the such as John Singer Sergeant, whose inclusion is rather questionable though.
This is a must see exhibit for sure!
