Monet and Normandy at the Royal Palace

Almost one hundred works, a dialogue between art and history, and an ideal bridge between Normandy and Sicily. Impressionist Treasures: Monet and Normandy, the new exhibition of the Federico II Foundation which celebrates Impressionism on the centenary of Claude Monet’s death, takes shape at the Palazzo Reale in Palermo. Masterpieces from the Peindre en Normandie Collection, the MuMa of Le Havre and private collections tell the story of the birth of a modern gaze through landscapes, light and plein air painting. A journey enriched by immersive installations, virtual reality and educational sections, designed to introduce even the youngest to the impressionist revolution. A highly prestigious event which, in the rooms of the Royal Palace of Palermo, combines artistic heritage, innovation and historical memory, confirming Palermo as a cultural crossroads of the Mediterranean.
