Description:The Collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art is unrivaled anywhere in the world except by that in the Louvre. Now for the first time the museum has gathered together in one volume 126 of its finest works in this area.In this volume the whole constellation of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists is encompassed, from Manet, the acknowledged father of Impressionism, to Seurat, Gauguin, and Cezanne, who laid the groundwork for twentieth-century Cubism and abstraction. Opening with the work of Jongkind and Boudin, two artists of the 1860s whose influence on many of the young painters led them in the 1870s to create the style now recognized as the classic phase of Impressionism, this book ranges over the varied contributions of Fanti-Latour, Pissarro, Sisley, Renoir, Signac, Toulouse-Lautrec, Redon, and Henri Rousseau.The 126 rich and faithful colorplates are augmented by 46 detail photographs in color that make it possible to see these masterly expressions of nineteenth-century avant-garde art with unprecedented clarity. Each work is accompanied by a scholarly commentary that reflects a full-scale evaluation of the literature, as well as of the aesthetic, philosophical, historical, scientific, and political milieus in which the art was created. The texts were written by Charles S. Moffett, formerly a curator in the Museum's Department of European Paintings, assisted by members of the department.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
