Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of art dealing in late nineteenth-century Paris, a period that saw the rise of Impressionism and the birth of modern art. The author, a successful dealer himself, recounts his experiences with a captivating blend of personal anecdotes and insightful observations. From his early days in La RÃÂ union, a French island colony, to his arrival in the artistic hub of Montmartre, the author chronicles his encounters with a colorful cast of characters, including renowned artists like CÃÂ zanne, Renoir, Degas, and Van Gogh. The author's keen eye for emerging talent and his willingness to champion unconventional art forms make for an engaging narrative. We learn about the collectors, critics, and socialites who shaped the art scene, and the often surprising prices that these groundbreaking works commanded. The author's reflections on the struggles and triumphs of the Impressionists, and the shifting tides of taste and appreciation for their work, reveal a complex and dynamic artistic landscape. The book provides a unique and valuable record of this crucial period in art history, offering a deeper understanding of the forces that shaped the artistic sensibilities of the twentieth century.
