520    The spectacular transformation of Paris during the 
       nineteenth century into a city of tree-lined boulevards 
       and public parks both redesigned the capital and inspired 
       the era's great Impressionist artists. The renewed 
       landscape gave crowded, displaced urban dwellers green 
       spaces to enjoy, while suburbanites and country dwellers 
       began cultivating their own flower gardens--trends that 
       spread throughout Europe and even to America. As exotic 
       botanical specimens arrived from abroad and local 
       nurserymen pursued hybridization, the availability and 
       variety of plants and flowers grew tremendously, as did 
       public interest in them. A revival in floral still-life 
       easel painting (rarely practiced since the seventeenth 
       century) brought the garden's beauty indoors. Public Parks,
       Private Gardens includes masterworks by artists such as 
       Bonnard, Cassatt, Cézanne, Corot, Daumier, Van Gogh, Manet
       , Matisse, Monet, and Seurat. Many of these artists were 
       themselves avid gardeners, and they painted parks and 
       gardens as the distinctive scenery of contemporary life. 
       Writing from the perspective of both a distinguished art 
       historian and a trained landscape designer, Colta Ives 
       provides new insights into these essential works and a 
       delightful protrait of an extraordinarily creative period 
       in France's history.

       Gardens: Paris to Provence," on view at The Metropolitan 
       Museum of Art, New York, from March 12 through July 29, 
       2018.
