Pastor and painter Vincent van Gogh produced more than 2,000 works of art in his last decade. Van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo that, as he had no children, he viewed his paintings as his progeny. Let’s explore some of these “brilliant children,” especially those at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Michael Norris, Ph.D., a former museum educator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, has given lectures for more than twenty years, especially in classical and medieval art, the areas of his expertise.

Led by popular art lecturer, Michael Norris, this talk explores the French Impressionist whose art often focused on modern young women and children—Berthe Marie Pauline Morisot (1841-1895), who captured her world in a vibrant, changing style. We’ll follow her life’s arc and learn that she and Édouard Manet enjoyed each other’s company so much—he also enjoyed her looks—that Berthe became his favorite model. He seems to have urged her to marry his adoring brother, Eugène, who then devoted his life to furthering Morisot's career, making the pair a fixture in late-19th-century Parisian culture. Local museums, such as the Newark Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will help tell her story in art.
