Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the vibrant world of 19th-century Paris, revealing the hidden machinations of art and business. It is set in a passage full of curiosities and trickery, an environment which the author masterfully uses to explore the tension between virtue and vice, art and commerce, and the clash of tradition and the new. At its core, the book is a meditation on the nature of truth. It explores the extent to which we can reshape, manipulate, and misrepresent reality to suit our needs and desires. Through a colorful cast of charactersâ"including crooked art dealers, cunning antiquarians, and flamboyant socialitesâ"the author shows us how easily the boundaries between truth and falsehood, beauty and ugliness can blur. Ultimately, the book challenges the binary division between art and commerce. It suggests that art can be a vehicle for deception and that authenticity is porous. Yet, at the same time, it argues that beauty has its own kind of truth that persists despite the inherent falsity of the art world. That even in the pursuit of profit and status, we find the stubborn insistence of human creativity and emotion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282964498_0
