Description: Art and the French Commune: Imagining Paris after War and Revolution
~I OWE SO MUCH to my colleagues and students over the years for their work and unfailing encouragement that it is impossible to do them all justice in the short space allotted for acknowledgments.

Description: Art and the French Commune: Imagining Paris after War and Revolution
~~IT HAS BE COME somewhat of a cliché to state that avant-garde painting began with the modernization of Paris. T. J. Clark shrewdly rephrased it in ideological terms: “It seems that only when the city has been systematically occupied by the...

This in turn cannot be discussed independently of the Franco-Prussian war which immediately preceded the Commune and with which it is inescapably attached. The presence of Prussian...

Description: Art and the French Commune: Imagining Paris after War and Revolution
~I WANT to begin this chapter with the case study of Gustave Caillebotte, both patron of, and participant in, the Impressionist collective. He was the youngest (born 1848) and most well off of the group, and the most conservative in style and content. His major works attest to a thorough assimilation of the rhetoric of...
