Join fashion historian Catherine Amoroso Leslie of Kent State University and CMA chief curator Heather Lemonedes Brown as they discuss the styles of dress popular in late 19th-century Paris and Vuillard’s bold use of patterns that reflect the time.
Édouard Vuillard painted alongside his mother and sister, both of whom were dressmakers. How did this exposure to fabric and fashion impact Vuillard’s art?
This program is organized in tandem with the CMA exhibition Private Lives: Home and Family in the Art of the Nabis, Paris, 1889–1900.
The above events are part of the museum’s free, dynamic digital initiative Home Is Where the Art Is, which showcases the CMA’s globally recognized digital resources and offers a variety of newly created fun and engaging programs for people of all ages. These sustainable digital experiences continue to complement the in-person museum experience now that the CMA has reopened. Visit cma.org/digital to access all of the available programmings.
