Enlivened by archival correspondence and records of firsthand accounts, essays by American and French scholars take a fresh look at the artists' family relationships, literary friendships, and interconnected social and intellectual circles in Paris; explore their complex depictions of race and class; discuss their political views in the context of wars in France and the United States; compare their artistic practices; and examine how Degas built his personal collection of works by Manet after his friend's premature death. An illustrated biographical chronology charts their intersecting lives and careers. This lavishly illustrated, in-depth study offers an opportunity to reevaluate some of the most canonical French artworks of the nineteenth century, including Manet's \u003ci\u003eOlympia\u003c\/i\u003e, Degas's \u003ci\u003eThe Absinthe Drinker\u003c\/i\u003e, and other masterworks. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art\/Distributed by Yale University Press \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eMus馥 d'Orsay, Paris\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (March 27-July 23, 2023) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (September 24, 2023-January 7, 2024)\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStephan Wolohojian\u003c\/b\u003e is John Pope-Hennessy Curator in Charge in the Department of European Paintings, and \u003cb\u003eAshley Dunn\u003c\/b\u003e is associate curator in the Department of Drawings and Prints, both at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 316\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.31 x 11.76 x 9.54 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 26, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42695715946559,"sku":"9781588397638","price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/951de94766acb9d522fb5d9a5a0f3993.webp?v=1765004816","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/manet-degas-hardcover","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
