Description: Brand new. Factory Sealed. Showcases the work of a realist artist whose work is enjoying a revivalExplores Bouguereau's work in new depth, with expert insight into his most important paintingsWilliam Bouguereau, the most popular artist in nineteenth-century France, is rapidly becoming one of the most popular realist artists of all time. This book is an exploration of the four main types of paintings that were most prevalent throughout Bouguereau's body of work. This includes his mythological works, religious works, peasants, and portraits. This final section on portraits focuses on paintings of heads and hands, which gave the artist the opportunity to concentrate on the subtleties of capturing human emotion, something at which the artist was a consummate master, and is a primary factor in what makes his works, in general, so compelling.(shelf 28a)
