Take a video tour of Her Paris: Women Artists in the Age of Impressionism and see why it's getting rave reviews. Below are just a few of the comments visitors have shared with us:
1. I loved the exhibit. One of my favorites of all time. I have been a member for many years & have visited many exhibits starting in the late 1980s. This is one of the best. Everyone should see it. Its themes are so relevant for our times in history. – JPT
