The Private Lives of the Impressionists is the first book to offer an intimate and lively biography of the world’s most popular group of artists, including Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Cézanne, Renoir, Degas, Sisley, Berthe Morisot, and Mary Cassatt. In a vivid and moving narrative, Sue Roe brings to life these artists in the studios of Paris, the rural lanes of Montmartre, and the rowdy riverside bars of 19th-century Paris. Her intimate, colorful, superbly researched account takes us into the homes and studios of these artists who, for more than 20 years, lived and worked together as a group, and describes their unconventional, volatile and precarious lives, as well as the stories behind their paintings. Paperback, 368 pages.
