Drawing from the British Museum's rich collection of prints – from Manet to Degas and Toulouse-Lautrec to Cézanne – this exhibition explores the flourishing print movement of late 19th century France.

As Paris exploded with life and creativity, artists experimented with printmaking, producing striking images of modern city life. 

This exhibition offers an insight into the world of the Impressionists and many other artists, who all captured the vibrant dynamism of the city through the exciting possibilities of printmaking.
