Taking its lead from French artists, the American impressionist movement followed its own path which reveals as much about America as a nation as it does about its art as a creative powerhouse.

It’s a story closely tied to a love of gardens and a desire to preserve nature in a rapidly urbanising nation. This mesmerising film features the sell-out exhibition The Artist’s Garden: American Impressionism and the Garden Movement, 1887–1920 that began at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and ended at the Florence Griswold Museum, Old Lyme, Connecticut.
