By his striking use of colour for emotive effects and his almost hallucinatory patterns of brush strokes, Van Gogh (1853-1890) changed the course of European painting. Using slides, we shall study the development of painting in 19th century France from the Old Master tradition to Impressionism and Post-Impressionism and how Van Gogh fits into this.
Study Days are open to all U3A members and guests are very welcome. They are held in the Menuhin Hall, Stoke d’Abernon; starting at 9.30am with registration and running from 10am to 4pm. We offer hybrid events so that members can attend the hall or view the study days online.
