About This Item
New York 2004. Willsdon explores the Impressionists fascination with gardens, parks, and flowers in the context of the contemporary preoccupation with horticulture and the changing political and cultural landscape. Drawing on many sources, including novels by Zola and Flaubert, gardening journals, poetry by Baudelaire, and the artists personal letters, Clare Willsdon shows how gardens were central to the Impressionists discovery of their distinctive plein-air (out of doors) style, profoundly influenced by the wealth of garden subjects which were at the same time both modern and imbued with nostalgia. Willsdon also brings to life the tradition of floral symbolism in 19th century France, and explains - for the first time - how this infiltrated the work of key impressionists such as Monet, P.S. Krøyer et al., English, Year2004, Illust. B/W126, Illust. Color132, ISBN 0865652325, Code 6177. Hardbound with Jacket , In Pristine Condition, Bibl. Index. Pages 288, Size 12 1/2x 9 1/2
