What do a fly and a mulberry have in common? What utopias await in unexplored corners of the earth and beyond?\u003c\/i\u003e During the Enlightenment, questions like these were brought to life through an astonishing array of prints and drawings, helping shape public opinion and stir political change. \u003ci\u003eDare to Know\u003c\/i\u003e overturns common assumptions about the age, using the era's proliferation of works on paper to tell a more nuanced story. Echoing the structure and sweep of Diderot's \u003ci\u003eEncyclopédie\u003c\/i\u003e, the book contains 26 thematic essays, organized A to Z, providing an unprecedented perspective on more than 50 artists, including Henry Fuseli, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Francisco Goya, Jean-Baptiste Greuze, William Hogarth, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, and Giambattista Tiepolo. With a multidisciplinary approach, the book probes developments in the natural sciences, technology, economics, and more--all through the lens of the graphic arts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Distributed for the Harvard Art Museums \u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eHarvard Art Museums, Cambridge, MA\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (September 16, 2022-January 15, 2023)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edouard Kopp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300266723\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300266726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard Art Museums\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 7.50w x 0.90d","brand":"Edouard Kopp","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44070639567103,"sku":"9780300266726","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4dbb576d-0b0b-4038-9ce0-ce123e31a081.jpg?v=1685431495","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dare-to-know-edouard-kopp-9780300266726","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
