BERTHE MORISOT
The documentary investigates the intriguing life of forgotten female impressionist Berthe Morisot.
At a time when it was inconceivable for a woman to pursue a career, Berthe Morisot (1841-1895), courageously followed her passion. As a painter she became one of the founding members of Impressionism. She was the only woman among them. Her male colleagues have become world famous, names like Monet, Degas, Pissarro, Sisley and Renoir. Berthe Morisot has remained relatively unknown.
De documentaire onderzoekt het intrigerende leven van de vergeten vrouwelijke impressionist Berthe Morisot.

Berthe Morisot is één van de grondleggers van het impressionisme, maar het feit dat ze een vrouw was stond een glansrijke carrière in de weg. Terwijl haar mannelijke collega’s Monet, Degas, Sisley, Pissarro en Renoir wereldberoemde kunstenaars zijn geworden is de Franse kunstschilder Berthe Morisot (1841 – 1895) vrijwel in de vergetelheid geraakt.
