Summary
Catalog of an exhibition of 67 French theater programs and other printed ephemera from the last years of the 19th century. The selection offers a range of artistic styles from realism to symbolism and includes the work of artists such as Pierre Bonnard, Edvard Munch, Henri di Toulouse-Lautrec and Edouard Vuillard. The exhibition celebrates the gift of some 130 works on paper and bound volumes to the National Gallery of Art from Martin and Liane W. Atlas and the Atlas Foundation. The publication consists of chapters on the three most important avant-garde theaters in Paris at that time: the Théâtre libre, the Théâtre d'art and the Théâtre de l'oeuvre. It also includes a checklist of the Atlas Collection at the National Gallery of Art.
