Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890)
"Congregation Leaving the Reformed Church in Nuenen" (1884)
Oil on canvas
Post-Impressionism
Located in the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands
This painting was stolen in December 2002, along with Van Gogh's early painting of "Beach at Scheveningen in Stormy Weather," and remained missing for over 13 years until it was recovered by the Italian Guardia di Finanza at Castellammare di Stabia near Naples in January 2016, without its original frame. Its recovery was not announced until the September of that year, and was subsequently returned to the museum, and went back on display in March 2017.

━ Berthe Morisot (1841–1895) ;
Born in 1841, she was the only woman invited to show in the first Impressionist exhibition (formerly called the Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors and Printmakers) in 1874.
Her paintings were full of color and light, and she perfectly mastered the technique of painting fleeting shades and shadows.
She focused on her family, friends. Berthe Morisot's work is full of light, bright colors and the brush work is disjointed and varied. She accurately represented natural light by applying a large range of colors to the canvas with petite brush strokes. Although up close her paintings become indistinct, from a distance the works are unified with colors that merge together. Harsh lines are removed by a lack of contrasting tones.
Morisot had the good fortune to not only marry into an artistic family, but also to be wholeheartedly supported by her husband, Eugène Manet (Édouard Manet's younger brother), who sacrificed his own ambition in order to manage her artistic career. She exhibited a keen appreciation of public taste and as a result her works sold well during her lifetime and afterwards
