McMaster’s Monet Travels to Denmark
August 23, 2016
McMaster Museum of Art’s Waterloo Bridge, 1903 (Gift of Herman Levy) is currently at Ordrupgaard Museum in Denmark for the exhibition MONET. BEYOND IMPRESSIONISM, which opens tomorrow. It is among 50 works borrowed from major museums around the world for the largest Scandinavian exhibition to date of the artist’s work. We’re delighted to be part of it.
Waterloo Bridge will be on view at the McMaster Museum of Art in autumn 2017, in our major exhibition A CULTIVATING JOURNEY: The Herman Levy Collection & Legacy. After it’s launch at McMaster, the exhibition will tour nationally.

Monet – a radical innovater in painting
With Monet. Beyond impressionism, Ordrupgaard is focusing on the legendary picture series that formed a recurring theme in the artist’s impressive career, and which led him on a journey of evolution from impressionism towards the freer use of form and colour in modern art.
The exhibition follows Monet from his first tentative steps into serial painting with the landscape paintings of the Seine Valley and the coasts of Normandy and Brittany, to the haystacks, poplars and cathedrals of the 1890s, and finally to the culmination in the magnificent water lily pictures painted in the new century.
