Description

The first half of the 19th Century spawned one of the most exciting concentrations of artists and artistic innovation in history.

The French impressionists opened the door to creative freedoms never before experienced, and a community rich in artistic and intellectual talent coalesced to forever change the direction of art.

This book documents more than 150 artists who worked, studied, and exhibited in Paris between 1890 and 1950.

Many of them have been completely overlooked by scholars and art historians.

Their work encompasses the La Belle Epoque, Postimpressionist, Cubist, and School of Paris movements.

More than 375 color images of their paintings document this fabulous cultural explosion, and also present a visual time capsule, showing the populace at work and at play in bars, cabarets, and jazz clubs, even scenes of the artists' own studios.

This book has been a labor of love; many years in the making.

Collectors, curators, and historians will find it an invaluable tool for understanding the art of this period.

By documenting artists who have not been written about for many years, the authors offer insight to their paintings, which can still be acquired at equitable prices.
