Author Description

As a result of generous loans of over one hundred outstanding works of art, the Courtauld Gallery has been able to extend its collection further into the twentieth century. In 2002, for the first time the Gallery was able to show historically coherent groups of works representing key developments in the art history of the early 20th century. This is the catalogue to the new display, which includes important paintings by Derain, Matisse, Gaugin, Vlamnicks, Van Gogh, Cézanne, Kandinsky, Münter and Jawlensky, and sculptures by Degas, Rodin, Matisse, Renoir, Moore and Hepworth.
