Download or read book Edgar Degas written by Richard Thomson and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1995 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar Degas was one of the great pioneers of modern art, and the J. Paul Getty and Norton Simon museums are fortunate to own jointly one of his finest pastels, Waiting (L'Attente), which he made sometime between 1880 and 1882, about midway in his career. In this fascinating monograph, author Richard Thomson explores this brilliant work in detail, revealing both the intricacies of its composition and the source of the emotional pull it immediately exerts upon the viewer. For Waiting is, indeed, an extraordinary object both in its craftsmanship and color and, perhaps most especially, in its aura of ambiguity and even mystery.

Book excerpt: This excellently illustrated book examines the mastery of the pastel technique that was such an outstanding feature of Degas' art. Although Degas was not unique in using pastel, it eventually became a method that he explored as few have done. Jockeys in the rain is a splendid example of the use of the medium. The eldest of five children, Degas came from a privileged Parisian family and received a strict, classical education. He acquired an early taste for art, and although he went to law school he spent his time drawing, visiting the studios of artists and viewing private collections owned by friends of his father. He entered the studios of Barrias and Lamothe, and studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts before travelling widely in Italy. Throughout his life he was caught midway between the Paris Salon and the impressionists. He was always aware of the problems of light and tone and took advice from Ingres, for whom he had the highest admiration. Degas was a master portrayer of everyday reality but one of his greatest qualities was his draughtsmanship in the classical tradition, being comparable to that of Ingres himself. This is a fascinating and authoritative exploration of the work of a great artist.--Book jacket.

Download or read book Manet and Modern Beauty written by Gloria Groom and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This stunning examination of the last years of Édouard Manet's life and career is the first book to explore the transformation of his style and subject matter in the 1870s and early 1880s. The name Manet often evokes the provocative, heroically scaled pictures he painted in the 1860s for the Salon, but in the late 1870s and early 1880s the artist produced quite a different body of work: stylish portraits of actresses and demimondaines, luscious still lifes, delicate pastels, intimate watercolors, and impressionistic scenes of suburban gardens and Parisian cafés. Often dismissed as too pretty and superficial by critics, these later works reflect Manet’s elegant social world, propose a radical new alignment of modern art with fashionable femininity, and record the artist’s unapologetic embrace of beauty and visual pleasure in the face of death. Featuring nearly three hundred illustrations and nine fascinating essays by established and emerging Manet specialists, a technical analysis of the late Salon painting Jeanne (Spring), a selection of the artist’s correspondence, a chronology, and more, Manet and Modern Beauty brings a diverse range of approaches to bear on a little-studied area of this major artist’s oeuvre.
