Vermont · From Rembrandt to the French Impressionists
A portrait with a dark hat precedes Monet's fogs, Degas' dance hall and Manet's still lifes or gardens: a journey from presence to atmosphere.
Founded by Electra Havemeyer Webb, the Shelburne Museum preserves a unique collection of American art, decorative arts and European paintings in Vermont. Its impressionist selection is closely linked to the Havemeyers, great New York collectors and parents of the founder. Part of the paintings is presented in six historic rooms brought up from their apartment at 740 Park Avenue, which restores a domestic experience of the collection. The works brought together here draw a very readable route. The Portrait of a Young Man in a Wide-Brimmed Hat, associated with Rembrandt, focuses light and psychology on a face emerging from the brunette. Monet observes Amsterdam then Vernon and London: bridges, church and mist become laboratories of light where the motif gradually dissolves. Degas sets the gaze in a dance rehearsal, with his oblique framing and his unposed gestures. Manet confronts two registers: the silver material of a still life with salmon and the calm modernity of a scene in the garden. Together, these paintings show the transition from a presence constructed by chiaroscuro to a modern vision made of framing, vibration and moment. The "Shelburne Museum" selection notably compares Portrait of a Young Man in a Wide-Brimmed Hat and Amsterdam, The Bridge. His reading favors composition.
At Shelburne, the collection resembles an inhabited house: each room brings together the history of portraiture, impressionist light and the taste of a family.
