A firsthand account of the groundbreaking impressionist artists by the dealer who made them famous.

Entrepreneur art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel was the first to recognise the talent of the impressionist artists. Creating an international network of galleries and travelling exhibitions, he established the careers of Auguste Renoir, Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, and others.

This newly updated memoir, Discovering the Impressionists, is indispensable for understanding nineteenth-century artistic life and the art market. It retraces the gallerist's life from 1831 to 1922 through archival documents and illustrations, with detailed appendices, a selected bibliography, and indexes.
