Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accompanying a major traveling exhibition, this comprehensive volume examines Berthe Morisot’s remarkable body of work, painterly innovations, and leading role within the Impressionist canon. Today Berthe Morisot (1841–1895) is considered a major Impressionist artist, a recent development despite the respect received in her lifetime from peers Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. As the only female member of the Impressionist group at its founding in late 1873, Morisot played a major and multifaceted part in the movement, and her works were prized by pioneering dealers and collectors. Lush illustrations from throughout Morisot’s career depict her daring experimentations and her embrace of modern subjects in the city and at the seaside: fashionable young women, and intimate, domestic interiors. Texts examine her in the context of her contemporaries, the critical reception of her work, the subjects and settings she chose, and the state of Morisot scholarship. Berthe Morisot, Woman Impressionist makes an important contribution to the field, with never-before-published letters, interdisciplinary scholarship, and a specific focus on Morisot’s pioneering developments as a painter first, woman second.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berthe Morisot was one of France's most distinguished female painters. Yet, although her work hangs in galleries around the western world, she remains the least well known of the French Impressionists. Mystery and myth have surrounded Morisot since her death a century ago. Her life was reputedly one of tranquil domesticity and genteel fulfillment, but nothing could be further from the truth. What was the nature of her relationship with Edouard Manet, the most controversial artist of his day - a liaison which dominated not only her artistic but also her personal life, and led her to marry his brother? Why, in spite of political and cultural connections, did she find happiness and public recognition so elusive? Was she descended from Fragonard? This biography, the first full-length examination of Morisot's life, explores these questions in the context of many other relationships and the dramatic social and political backcloth of her time, and reveals how she came to have an important place among the Impressionists.

Download or read book Growing Up with the Impressionists written by Julie Manet and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-24 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Julie Manet, the niece of Edouard Manet and the daughter of the most famous female Impressionist artist, Berthe Morisot, was born in Paris on 14 November 1878 into a wealthy and cultured milieu at the height of the Impressionist era. Many young girls still confide their inner thoughts to diaries and it is hardly surprising that, with her mother giving all her encouragement, Julie would prove to be no exception to the rule. At the age of ten, Julie began writing her `memoirs' but it wasn't until August 1893, at fourteen, that Julie began her diary in earnest: no neat leather-bound volume with lock and key but just untidy notes scribbled in old exercise books, often in pencil, the presentation as spontaneous as its contents. Her extraordinary diary - newly translated here by an expert on Impressionism - reveals a vivid depiction of a vital period in France's cultural history seen through the youthful and precocious eyes of the youngest member of what was surely the most prominent artistic family of the time.

Book excerpt: "The French nineteenth-century painter Berthe Morisot was held by her contemporaries to the the 'quintessential Impressionist'. She was an influential member of the Impressionist group, whose exhibitions she organized with her colleagues, Monet, Renoir, Pissarro and Degas. This book shows how she was able to turn the limitaitons that her gender, background and education imposed on her as an artist to advantage. But, above all, it has been the quality of her paintings, drawings and graphic work that has ensured her continuing fame." - back cover.

Download or read book Critical Readings in Impressionism and Post Impressionism written by Mary Tompkins Lewis and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this wide-ranging, beautifully illustrated volume capture the theoretical range and scholarly rigor of recent criticism that has fundamentally transformed the study of French Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. Readers are invited to consider the profound issues and penetrating questions that lie beneath this perennially popular body of work as the contributors examine the art world of late nineteenth-century France—including detailed looks at Monet, Manet, Pissarro, Degas, Cézanne, Morisot, Seurat, Van Gogh, and Gauguin. The authors offer fascinating new perspectives, placing the artworks from this period in wider social and historical contexts. They explore these painters' pictorial and market strategies, the critical reception and modern criteria the paintings engendered, and the movement's historic role in the formation of an avant-garde tradition. Their research reflects the wealth of new documents, critical approaches, and scholarly exhibitions that have fundamentally altered our understanding of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. These essays, several of which have previously been familiar only to scholars, provide instructive models of in-depth critical analysis and of the competing art historical methods that have crucially reshaped the field.

Book excerpt: The 21st century's first major academic reassessment of Impressionism, providing a new generation of scholars with a comprehensive view of critical conversations Presenting an expansive view of the study of Impressionism, this extraordinary volume breaks new thematic ground while also reconsidering established questions surrounding the definition, chronology, and membership of the Impressionist movement.

The essays cover a wide variety of methodologies in addressing such topics as Impressionism's global predominance at the turn of the 20th century, the relationship between Impressionism and the emergence of new media, the materials and techniques of the Impressionists, and the movement's exhibition and reception history.
