Ernest de Saisset: Selections from the Permanent Collection

April 17-26, 2009

Ernest de Saisset (1864-1888) was a Santa Clara College student who went on to study painting in Paris at the Acadèmie Julien. The de Saisset Museum has nearly 100 works by de Saisset in the permanent collection, thanks to a donation from the Museum’s founder and the artist’s sister, Isabel de Saisset. This exhibition focuses on portraits of Isabel de Saisset painted by Ernest de Saisset.
