Gabrielle Hébert, Amour fou à la Villa Médicis

Faubourg Saint-Germain

In 1888, Gabrielle Hébert picked up a camera and never looked back. This rare exhibition reveals her obsessive, tender chronicle of Villa Medici life: nudes, still lifes, and hundreds of portraits of her famous husband that quietly reversed every gender stereotype of the era.
