Facing the Sun
On 13 November 1872, from the window of his hotel in Le Havre, Claude Monet painted a view of the port through the mist. Exhibited two years later under the title Impression, soleil levant [Impression, Sunrise] (1872, Paris, Mus茅e Marmottan Monet), the work inspired critic Louis Leroy to coin the term 鈥淚mpressionist鈥�, thus giving a name to the group formed by Monet and his friends.
In 2022, the Mus茅e Marmottan Monet, in collaboration with the Museum Barberini celebrates the 150th anniversary of, Impression, soleil levant [Impression, Sunrise] and pays tribute to it through the exhibition 鈥淔acing the Sun鈥�, presented in Paris from 21 September 2022 to 29 January 2023 and in Potsdam, from 25 February to 11 June 2023 under the title 鈥淪onne.
