Paperback. Condición: New. A fresh take on a beloved masterpiece of portraiture, focusing on the complex significance of the color pink in eighteenth-century France François Boucher's 1750 half-length portrait of Madame de Pompadour-influential court figure and mistress to King Louis XV-has been the subject of much art historical attention, particularly with regard to gender and representation. Building on that foundation, this volume turns toward an underappreciated aspect of the portrait: the use and significance of the color pink. Four scholarly essays, including one by noted Boucher expert Mark Ledbury, establish a framework that connects Pompadour's fondness and promotion of the color, Boucher's artistic association with the color, and developments in the material basis of the color, including its application in other media such as porcelain. This engaging close look offers new ways to understand the portrait, revealing its links to motherhood and sentiment, race and the transatlantic slave trade, and the crosscurrents of natural history and scientific discovery.Distributed for the Harvard Art Museums.…

Paperback. Condición: Near Fine. 1st. xii, 219 pages, illustrations (some colour); 31 cm. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Age toning. OVERSIZE! Additional shipping charges may be requested for international & priority orders. A large-format coffee-table book. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Paintings by such celebrated eighteenth-century artists as Watteau, Boucher, Chardin, Fragonard, Greuze, and Boilly have long been admired for their charming and intimate subjects--fetes galantes, pastorals, tableaux de mode, middle-class domestic interiors, and scenes of family life and romantic love--and for their pleasing color schemes. In this lavishly illustrated and produced book, genre painting is explored for the first time within the broader cultural context of Enlightenment France. Through a series of innovative and lively essays dealing largely with aspects of art, gender, and politics in the decades preceding the French Revolution, Intimate Encounters enables us to appreciate genre paintings anew: although they are almost always attractive to the eye, sometimes to the point of appearing fanciful, the paintings also bear the intellectual imprint of turbulent times. the interactions of "ordinary" people--nonhistorical, nonmythic figures--within the family and in romantic encounters. We learn that genre painters tended to infuse their depictions of intimacy with moral and ideological significance. Their imagery coincided with fundamental debates over gender roles and relationships, the family, child-rearing, and illicit versus conjugal love, topics that were crucial to such writers and social commentators as Rousseau, Diderot, and Laclos. Published in conjunction with a major traveling exhibition, Intimate Encounters contains five essays written by specialists from a variety of disciplines, which are followed by fifty-one full catalog entries on the paintings included in the show. The essays delve into such matters as art criticism and the presence of women in cultural life (Richard Rand), the family and the ideology of sentimentalism (Sarah Maza), the influence of innovative theater on genre painting (Mark Ledbury), the debate over women's rights (Virginia Swain), and the production and marketing of prints to a growing art audience (Anne L. Schroder)." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Lenders to the Exhibition; Foreword; Preface and Acknowledgments; Love, Domesticity, and the Evolution of Genre Painting in Eighteenth-Century France; Hidden from View: French Women Authors and the Language of Rights, 1727-1792; The "Bourgeois" Family Revisited: Sentimentalism and Social Class in Prerevolutionary French Culture; Intimate Dramas: Genre Painting and New Theater in Eighteenth-Century France; Genre Prints in Eighteenth-Century France: Production, Market, and Audience; Catalogue of Paintings; Checklist of Prints; Bibliography; Exhibitions; List of Artists; Index; Photo Credit.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The essays in this volume show that Versailles was not the static creation of one man, but a hugely complex cultural space; a centre of power, but also of life, love, anxiety, creation, and an enduring palimpsest of aspirations, desires, and ruptures. The splendour of the Chateau and the masterpieces of art and design that it contains mask a more complex and sometimes more sordid history of human struggle and achievement. The case studies presented by the contributors to this book cannot provide a comprehensive account of the Palace of Versailles and its domains, the life within its walls, its visitors, and the art and architecture that it has inspired from the seventeenth century to the present day: from the palace of the Sun King to the Penthouse of Donald Trump. However, this innovative collection will reshapeor even radically redefineour understanding of the palace of Versailles and its posterity.
