projet Viau

2021-2022 Edition: George Viau's collection

The group of students who validated the course last year worked on the collection of some 1,200 impressionist and post-impressionist works of the dental surgeon George Viau (1855-1939), from the constitution of the corpus to its exploration, editorialization and final publication on the Digital Viau website.
