Join us as we explore the inte rsections of French art and culinary culture in the 1870’s t hrough the 1890’s with a talk by A ndrew Eschelbacher\, PhD\, the exhibition curator of Farm to Table : Food and Identity in the Age of Impressionism. Fo od had long been central to French identity but was never more so than in these tumultuous years. From representations of sumptuous ingredients an d severe privation\, bountiful meals and agrarian crises\, the era's depi ctions of markets and gardens\, farmers\, chefs\, and restaurants were ce ntral to the complex effort to define what it meant to be French.
