Impressionist Places: Revealed in Paintings and Photographs
What remains of the places the Impressionists painted? Photographer Christoph Irrgang revisited European locations represented in the Museum Barberini’s collection, photographing the views so they could be compared with the paintings. Harbours, shaded paths, gardens and riversides appear in two forms: as the artists saw them and as they look today.
Miriam Leimer’s texts introduce the pictures and their settings, with precise location coordinates for readers who want to follow the artists’ footsteps. The 176-page volume pairs art with contemporary photography, making it a particularly engaging choice for lovers of landscape, travel and the changing character of familiar places. It offers both beautiful images and a practical invitation to look more carefully at a view.
