James Tissot: Victorian Life/Modern Love
$110.00
by Nancy Rose Marshall and Malcolm Warner
A catalog for an exhibition organized by the Yale Center for British Art and the American Federation of Arts, James Tissot: Victorian Life/Modern Love features nearly a hundred paintings, prints, and watercolors, mostly in color, from nearly every phase of the artist's career in the last half of the nineteenth century. Tissot, himself known as a dandy, documented the vanities and flirtations, not to mention the fashions and foibles, of the monied classes of his times, mostly in Paris and London, and usually with a sense of humor about it all. Susan P. Casteras, professor of art history at the University of Washington, said in her review that this book was “intended for various audiences, and as such is definitely an admirable general source to add to library shelves.” “The catalogue is divided into useful thematic sections….The entries are full of interesting asides, details, and implications,”she continued. Our copy is without blemish, without any marks or creases on the pages or any flaws to the binding. The dust jacket is in very good condition, showing some slight signs of rubbing and shelf wear.
