Corot: the poetry of landscape / Pomarede, Uincent; De Wallens, Gerard 1999  Book
Pomarede, Uincent Book

Publication London, Thames & Hudson, 1999.
Description 159pBlack Spine
Series New Horizons
Summary/Abstract Corot has been considered many things: a precursor of Impressionism, with his sophisticated plays of light; a romantic for his lyrical landscapes; a realist, since he painted directly from nature. His devotion to nature brought him close to the Realists, and his sensitive studies of light and shade, often painted in the open air, and the freedom of his brushwork has a marked influence on the Impressonists. There is more to Corot than landscape - his poetic evocation of classical myth, the sensuos charm of his portraits of women and his dream-like vision of women. This study of Corot includes extracts from journals and newpapers.

Summary/Abstract Impressionism began in France in the 1870s. The impressionists were a group of painters who wanted to create pictures that captured the light and mood of their surroundings. Renoir lived in France during this time, and is considered to be one of the most celebrated Impressionist masters. This book profiles major artists of the Impressionist era, which some say was the beginning of modern art, in the context of the political, economic, and other changes occurring throughout the world at the same time.

Paul Gauguin: French painter / Cook, Diane; Thomas, Yan (ill.) 2003  Book
Cook, Diane Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Pennsylvania, Mason Crest Publishers, 2003.
Description 32pCream Spine
Series Great Names
Summary/Abstract The author tells the story of Gauguin's life and work in a style which should appeal to those encountering the artist for the first time. The reader learns how Gauguin, a successful Paris stockbroker, left his family to sail off to Tahiti on an artistic quest that produced some of the late 19th century's most beautiful and original paintings. Though he was considered a failure during his own time, history paints Gauguin as one of the leading French Post-Impressionists. He developed a conceptual method of representation, using pure colour, strong lines, and two-dimensional patterns.
