Book First Edition
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 1st. xii, 219 pages, illustrations (some colour); 31 cm. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Age toning. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by arrangement. 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--f-tes 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. Size: 4to.

Mais qui, du cadre ou du mur, construit le lieu de la peinture ? Que s'est-il passé lorsque cette énigme occidentale fut confrontée à l'époque moderne à une autre représentation du monde ? Si l'Europe des Lumières est souvent caractérisée par les chinoiseries et l'ornement rocaille, c'est un nouveau regard sur l'Extrême-Orient qui est analysé ici, celui qui lie l'histoire du tableau à une idée de l'espace transmise par les décors des objets venus d'Asie. Dans quelle mesure la présence réelle ou fantasmée de l'Orient a-t-elle modifié le rapport de la peinture au support qui la donne à voir ? Tel est l'objet de ce livre qui présente le changement de paradigme dans la construction du goût suscité par les notions orientales de paysage, de lointain et de vide, pour que le sort de la peinture se transforme. D'où vient la place particulière qu'elle acquiert au XVIIIe siècle ? De quelle façon fut bouleversée son exposition pour qu'elle devienne le tableau que nous connaissons aujourd'hui ? -- Sommaire: Préface de Mark Ledbury; Introduction; 1 ? Les lieux de la peinture [Décorer ou la matérialité des décors; L'usage du décor; Les espaces impartis à la peinture]; 2 ? Le temps du décor [Les lointains de la peinture; Tableaux en amont; Le décor comme écrin]; 3 ? L'arabesque d'un ornement [L'arabesque peinte; L'arabesque à l'entour du tableau; Le tableau arabesque]; 4 ? L'Orient des décorations [Rêve de chinoiserie; Rêve de matières; Rêve de couleurs]; 5 ? L'idée orientale du goût [De l'objet d'Orient à l'objet de goût; Lieux chinois d'Europe; Le blanc des jardins d'Asie]; 6 ? Un autre mode de représentation du monde [Un système non mimétique; Dissoudre le support architectural ou la surface repensée; Le décor reconnu comme oeuvre d'art]; Conclusion ? Le caprice de l'Orient ou faire du tableau une île; Notes; Bibliographie [Sources anciennes; Sources anciennes éditées après le XVIIIe siècle; Études modernes; Catalogues d'expositions]; Index.

Paperback. Condition: Near fine in wraps. First Edition. 18 x 25cm 300pp near fine paperback with colour plus black and white reproductions. Francois Boucher (1703-70) is defined here as 'a French artistic avant-garde, modern thinker throughout his career. Yet the triumph of modernist aesthetics - with its focus on the self-critical, the autonomous, and the intellectually challenging - has long discourged art historians and other viewers from taking Boucher's playful and alluring works seriously'.
