The Tanenbaum gift of over two hundred works of internationally significant nineteenth-century European art is one of the most important donations of art ever gifted to a Canadian gallery. A diverse and original collection, it features works by Leon Bonnat, Frank Brangwyn, Charles Cordier, Gustave Dore, Eugene Isabey, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, Henry Raeburn, John Singer Sargent, Joaquin Sorolla, James Tissot, and Anders Zorn. This new volume gives an insight into a broad range of artistic production in the nineteenth century, including painting, terracotta, sculpture, and drawing, and challenges many lasting misconceptions about nineteenth-century art.
