The Brooklyn Museum will be hosting a spectacular exhibition of the watercolor paintings of the illustrious 19th century French painter, James Tissot (1836-1902). It looks marvelous! The exhibition is “The Life of Christ,” and will include 124 of Tissot’s watercolors. Tissot was a remarkable painter– in an era when French painters were still dabbling in impressionism, pointilism, and heavy oil washes, Tissot was moving toward realism in watercolor. His paintings are lovely, and give a glimpse into the thoughtfulness of the painter.
