Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne and Beyond: Post-Impressionist Masterpieces from the Musée d’Orsay presents 120 of the Musée d’Orsay’s most famous late Impressionist paintings including those by Monet and Renoir, followed by the more individualistic styles of the early modern masters including Cézanne, Gauguin, Lautrec and van Gogh, and the Nabis painters, Bonnard and Vuillard. The exhibition will also provide a unique look at the Orsay’s spectacular collection of Pointillist painters including work by Seurat and Signac.

Japanesque: The Japanese Print in the Era of Impressionism introduces audiences to the development of the Japanese print over two centuries (1700 - 1900), and reveals its profound influence on Western art during the era of Impressionism.  This exhibition complements the de Young museum's display of paintings from the Musée d'Orsay, many of which are aesthetically indebted to concepts of Japanese art.
