A homage to the collectors who took a chance on the burgeoning movement

Many people know that Impressionism initially encountered severe censure from the art establishment. Fewer people, however, know the pivotal role that a group of collectors played in defending and championing the burgeoning movement. These select collectors not only purchased pieces from Impressionist artists but also displayed the works in private gatherings, publicized the movement internationally and eventually donated their collections to museums. Functioning as advisors, curators and publicists in addition to collectors, they were truly instrumental in cementing the movement's prominent position within art history.
