Established in Paris from 1874, Albert Edelfelt was considered "the most Parisian of Finns and the most Finnish of Parisians." The first Finnish artist to enter French public collections, he became famous in the 1880s with his masterful Portrait of Louis Pasteur.
Through an exceptional collection, this first French monograph devoted to Albert Edelfelt allows us to discover his work, between history painting, scenes of modern life and plein-airism - a synthesis of realism and impressionism -, offering a striking and luminous image of his native land.
