Title: Spring Morning, ca. 1875

Artist: James Tissot (1836-1902)

Although French artist James Tissot (1836-1902) was a friend of Degas and the other Impressionists, he never joined their group. However, like them, he recreated the luminous sunlight of nature as seen in Spring Morning above, illuminating the awakening garden of the new season.
