We are delighted to once again welcome Gail Brown, art historian, formerly from Calne, of Tangerine Art Talks, to the Festival.
Paris, the City of Lights, was an exciting place to be in the last quarter of the 19th century and a major part of that allure was provided by the exhilarating pace and variety of its nightlife.
In Gail's talk this year we will peer through opera glasses at who’s wearing what at the theatre with Renoir and Cassatt. Mingle with the crowd in the cafés with Manet, Degas and Van Gogh.Thrill at the high-kicking antics of the music halls of Montmartre with Toulouse-Lautrec and gaze at the sad circuses with Seurat and Picasso.
Tickets: £5 (Friends £3*, Under 18s £1)
