Bequeathed in 1998, Edgar Degas\u2019s <em>Les Danseuses <\/em>is another masterpiece in the Hermitage. Surrounding this splendid pastel, a selection of other ballet works by the artist reveals how modern his compositions were. Impressionism is given pride of place at the heart of the catalogue, with works by painters that have always been associated with the Fondation de l\u2019Hermitage, such as Sisley, Fantin-Latour, and Caillebotte. Vuillard and Vallotton have a section all to themselves. Paintings by artists from the Vaud region of Switzerland active during the early decades of the twentieth century bear witness to the new trends emerging in Swiss art during that pivotal period. A further section is devoted to surrealism, especially some exceptional works by Ren\u00e9 Magritte. The catalogue ends with a wonderful ensemble of paintings by Suzanne Valadon, which are remarkable for their strong and simple compositions enhanced by vibrant colours.<\/p>\n<p><strong>B\u00e9atrice Aubert Mi\u00e9ville<\/strong> is an expert in Fran\u00e7ois Bocion and the author of several monographs on the artist.<br \/>\n<strong>Aur\u00e9lie Couvreur<\/strong> is a curator at the Fondation de l\u2019Hermitage, in Lausanne.<br \/>\n<strong>Florence Friedrich<\/strong> is a scientific consultant at the Fondation de l\u2019Hermitage, in Lausanne.<br \/>\n<strong>Dominique Hoeltschi<\/strong> is a scientific consultant at the Fondation de l\u2019Hermitage, in Lausanne.<br \/>\n<strong>Dave L\u00fcthi<\/strong> is a professor of architecture and heritage at the University of Lausanne.<br \/>\n<strong>Katia Poletti<\/strong> is a curator at the Fondation F\u00e9lix Vallotton, in Lausanne.<br \/>\n<strong>Nathalie Strasser<\/strong> is the curator of the Jean Bonna Collection, in Geneva, and an expert in Italian drawing.<br \/>\n<strong>Sylvie Wuhrmann<\/strong> is the Director of the Fondation de l\u2019Hermitage, in Lausanne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This book was published to accompany the exhibition Au fil des collections, de Tiepolo \u00e0Degas, which gave visitors the opportunity to (re)discover the treasures of the Fondation de l\u2019Hermitage, in Lausanne, juxtaposed with gems from other Swiss collections in an original and innovative display.Thanks to the wonderful colour reproductions of all the works exhibited, this&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8022,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[59],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-8045","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-modern-art","7":"disponibilita-si","8":"description-off","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/8045","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8022"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8045"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=8045"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=8045"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivecontinentseditions.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=8045"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
