We preview the “Birth of Impressionism” exhibit opening this weekend at San Francisco’s de Young Museum. The de Young is the only museum in the world that will host two consecutive Impressionist exhibits from the Musee d’Orsay in Paris. The directors of the de Young and the Musee d’Orsay join us to discuss the exhibit, and the tumultuous events in 19th century France that led to a transformation of the art world.
