The end of tradition
The Official Hall of Paris established the criteria that drove the art during the seventies of the nineteenth century. Romantics and realists like Courbet were rejected. The Impressionists suffered also critics mocking their forms. The most famous paintings of some of them are now coming to Madrid to illustrate a tumultuous period in the history of art, which divided France and the world into two camps: the traditional and the modern.
