Maurice Denis
Maurice Denis (1870-1943) was a representative French Impressionist painter active from the late nineteenth to the first half of the twentieth century. He was an important member of the Les Nabis avant-garde group and his decorative style exerted a good deal of influence on twentieth century painting. Denis was also a pious Catholic and created famous works based on biblical or classical myths during his time with Les Nabis. On the other hand, the other works he painted based on everyday life, especially those depicting his own children and family, also hold an important position within his art.

This exhibition looks at these paintings themed around children and the family, drawing on domestic and international museums, as well as the collections of individuals, to present around 100 paintings, sketches and photographs.
