Discover the poetical world of the Impressionist artist Jenny Montigny (1875–1937) from Ghent. Discover her versatile, intimate and luminous body of work, characteristic of this artist’s idyllic world. The exhibition highlights Montigny’s individuality and the artistic quality of her work as an independent painter, pastellist, draughtswoman and etcher.
Her depictions of the local school and the sun-drenched playground are unrivalled. Likewise, her paintings of outdoor life and rural existence along the Lys (Leie), her fascination with interiors and portraits, and her sensitive portrayal of motherhood and childhood reveal her unique and remarkable vision of the world.
