Paperback. Condición: Fine. 1st. 129 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 24 cm. Getty Museum Studies on Art. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "In a garden glade before a grand fountain, surrounded by a musical party, an elegant woman in a lustrous white gown dances as part of a foursome, raising her eyes to the viewer as if extending an invitation to the dance. This is the enticing scene in the Getty Museum's painting Dance before a Fountain by Nicolas Lancret (1690-1743), an excellent example of the fete galante, a genre that reached its peak of popularity in France during the first half of the eighteenth century. This monograph seeks to familiarize American audiences with Lancret, a master of this genre, who was a revered painter in his own time, rivaling his contemporaries Antoine Watteau and Francois Boucher, and a favorite of crowned heads across Europe. The author's lively, engrossing text uses the painting as a springboard to reveal a remarkable amount about Lancret, his mode of painting, contemporary Paris, and eighteenth-century dance. Lavishly illustrated with comparative paintings by artists such as Watteau, Boucher, Peter Paul Rubens, Jean-Francois De Troy, Jean-Baptiste Oudry, and Hubert Robert, this fascinating peek into a bygone Parisian era is a treat for the eyes and the intellect alike." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: The painting; The fete galante; The artist; The exposition of young painters; Lancret's Paris; The setting of the painting; The dance and the dancers; The variant; The provenance; A note on the study and treatment of Nicolas Lancret's Dance before a fountain, by Mark Leonard.
