Britain and France, 19th century: Neoclassicism, Romanticism and Realism
French Impressionism forms the collection's main focus, but its immediate forerunners in France occupy almost as important a position.
Special prominence is given to the leading representatives of Romanticism, Théodore Géricault and Eugène Delacroix, to the Realists Gustave Courbet and Honoré Daumier and to the landscape painter Camille Corot.
