Produktinformationen zu „Deaths of Henri Regnault (PDF)“
This is the first book in English on Henri Regnault (1843-71), a forgotten star of the European fin-de-siecle. A brilliant maverick who once seemed to hold the future of French painting in his hands, Regnault enjoyed a meteoric rise that was cut short when he died at the age of twenty-seven in the Franco-Prussian War. The story of his glamorous career and patriotic death colored French commemorative culture for nearly forty years-until his memory was swept away by the vast losses of World War I. In The Deaths of Henri Regnault, Marc Gotlieb reintroduces this important artist while offering a new perspective on the ultimate decline of nineteenth-century salon painting.Gotlieb traces Regnault's trajectory after he won the prestigious Grand Prix de Rome, a fellowship that provided four years of study in Italy. Arriving in Rome, however, Regnaultsuffered a profound crisisof originality that led him to flee the city in favor of Spain and Morocco. Butthecrisis also proved productive: from Rome, Madrid, Tangier, and Paris,Regnault enthralled audiences with a bold suite of strange, seductive, andviolent Orientalist paintings inspired by hisexotic journey-images that,Gotlieb argues, arose precisely from the crisis that had overtaken Regnault andthat in key respects was shared by his more avant-garde counterparts.Both an in-depth look at Regnault's violent art and a vibrant essay on historical memory, The Deaths of Henri Regnault lays bare a creative legend who helped shape the collective experience of a generation.
