This book sets out, like the others in this series, to allow the artist's character and his aims and intentions to speak for themselves through his writings and reported sayings and to show his artistic development in essentially visual terms, by the juxtaposition of significant works. By not clinging to the familiar repertory - although all the acknowledged masterpieces are there in force - the book demonstrates the great diversity of Manet's art and reveals him as the boldest of the avant-garde artists of his time. Besides charting the remarkable progress of his art the book also reveals the visual wit and charm that so closely parallel the character of the man himself and that are reflected in his lively informal correspondence. Juliet Wilson-Barreau is an art historian specializing in late 19th-century French art. She also devised "The Hidden Face of Manet" an exhibition shown at the Courtauld Galleries in 1986.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
