Frederick Bazille was one of the founding members of the Impressionist group and his most famous painting in The Artist's Studio 1870, which now hangs in the Musee d’Orsay entitled, ‘Studio, Rue de la Condamine,’ which shows his studio with a number of his famous friends in it, such as Monet, Renoir, Manet and Zola. This painting is a testament to the beginnings of Impressionism.

  1. Tremendous find, as I was not familiar with his work. He may not have been a major actor in the impressionist movement, but was friends and peers with Manet and Monet. Thank you.
