the era, Paul Cezanne, Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh, across European art
as a whole.

The third reprint of an indispensable resource for students and art historians alike. This book continues to be the only general survey of this field, covering the diverse group of talent from the decline of Pre-Raphaelitism in the late 19th century to the rise of "Neo-Romanticism" in the 1940s. From Burne-Jones to Stanley Spencer, with sculpture and children's book illustrators, there is no other volume as comprehensive or as broad of scope.

Ce remarquable ouvrage explore l'oeuvre de Manet en tant que portraitiste, aspect important mais souvent négligé de sa production, et couvre l'ensemble de la carrière du peintre. L'évolution stylistique de l'artiste y est envisagée de façon approfondie grâce aux contributions d'éminents spécialistes qui abordent l'influence des maîtres hollandais du XVIIe siècle, ou établissent des parallèles avec l'oeuvre de Renoir et des liens avec les débuts de la photographie. Somptueusement illustré par des peintures et des oeuvres sur papier, ainsi que des photographies de ses modèles, cette étude majeure apporte un nouvel éclairage sur ce peintre essentiel de la modernité. Accompagne l'exposition éponyme au Musée Van Gogh, Amsterdam (24 février 2012 - 27 mai 2012), The National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh (7 juillet - 7 octobre 2012) & Ateneum, Helsinki (16 novembre 2012 - 17 février 2013)
