Jean-Baptiste Greuze : the laundress by Colin B Bailey ( Book )

"Colin B. Bailey draws from the recent renaissance in the study of Ancien Regime art and society not only to situate this work in the context of Greuze's early career and to consider it against what is known of the realities of washing linen in eighteenth-century Paris, but also to suggest how patronage, exhibiting, and marketing each played a significant role in The Laundress's early history."--BOOK JACKET.

Greuze and the painting of sentiment by Emma Barker ( Book )
7 editions published between 2004 and 2005 in English and held by 265 libraries worldwide
This book provides a reassessment of the work of the eighteenth-century French painter, Jean-Baptiste Greuze, and reconstructs the wider movement in French painting of which he was the leading figure. Drawing on a wide range of contemporary sources, from literature and philosophy to political economy and medical discourse, it offers new interpretations of Greuze's work that help to account for the extraordinary popularity and high reputation that he enjoyed in his own lifetime. It shows that the scenes of family life that he exhibited in the Paris Salon between 1755 and 1769 exemplified and promoted an enlightened social vision. It also charts the subsequent evolution of Greuze's imagery, as he shifted towards darker and more sensational scenes of family conflict, and argues that the more challenging aspects of his vision were toned down by younger artists, who appropriated the painting of sentiment to serve a more conservative agenda.
