Impressionism and the Caribbean: Francisco Oller and His Transatlantic World opens today, October 2 through January 3, 2016 at the Brooklyn Museum.

The breathtaking exhibit studies the work of Puerto Rican painter, Francisco Oller who in 1858 traveled to Paris for the first of three major visits. A meeting with Paul Cezanne gave Oller entrance into the circle of painters known as the Impressionists. Oller painted outdoors with the eclectic painters and was influenced by the way they used natural light and shade to depict a moment in time out-of-doors; a practice called ‘plein air’. But his style would ultimately become regarded as naturalistic Realism and Impressionist. The 85 paintings on display highlight a history of work from Caribbean landscapes, portraits, to still lives. Also on display are several works from Impressionist master, Claude Monet, and other Caribbean contemporaries of Oller’s.

Below find a sample of the exhibit as I encourage you to experience it in full for yourself:
