After moving to Argenteuil, a suburban town on the outskirts of Paris, the artist (1840-1926) was inspired to paint the local highway bridge located near his house on the banks of the Seine. Le Pont de Bois (1872) depicts the bridge under repair following the destruction wrought by the war, and as such is a tribute to France's return to order. A composition of startling modernity, the painting also became a starting point for further explorations of this theme. Focusing on twelve major paintings by the artist, this book examines how Monet used the motif of the bridge as a laboratory for his innovative ideas, in his desire to establish himself as a leader of the avant-garde. it also looks at the Impressionists' artistic response in the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War and the way in which photographers and painters highlighted the remarkable range of brides in Paris." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Foreword; Acknowledgements; Lenders to the exhibition; Towards the modern landscape: Monet's Le pont de bois in context, by Annabelle Kienle Ponka; Reconstruction and reassurance in paintings: representing the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War, by Richard Thomson; "Great works of human industry": imagining the bridges of Paris, 1852-75, by Simon Kelly; Chronology, by Kirsten Appleyard; Exhibition checklist.
