商品簡介
This is the first complete volume in English devoted to an often overlooked Parisian artist who died at 28 in 1870. Independent California researcher, and friend/financier of future French Impressionists, Pitman scrutinizes Bazille's paintings ( The Family Gathering is best-known) and critical essays, framed by modern-postmodern tensions over purity (the essence of the medium) and pose (the subject's role as object). Other themes include his responses to photography, and the burden of tradition. Includes 141 illustrations (eight of them color plates). Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
