{"product_id":"realism-in-the-age-of-marnin-young-9780300208320","title":"Realism in the Age of Impressionism: Painting and the Politics of Time","description":"The late 1870s and early 1880s were watershed years in the history of French painting. As outgoing economic and social structures were being replaced by a capitalist, measured time, Impressionist artists sought to create works that could be perceived in an instant, capturing the sensations of rapidly transforming modern life. Yet a generation of artists pushed back against these changes, spearheading a short-lived revival of the Realist practices that had dominated at mid-century and advocating slowness in practice, subject matter, and beholding. In this illuminating book, Marnin Young looks closely at five works by Jules Bastien-Lepage, Gustave Caillebotte, Alfred-Philippe Roll, Jean-François Raffaëlli, and James Ensor, artists who shared a concern with painting and temporality that is all but forgotten today, having been eclipsed by the ideals of Impressionism. Young's highly original study situates later Realism for the first time within the larger social, political, and economic framework and argues for its centrality in understanding the development of modern art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marnin Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300208324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300208320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.32h x 8.08w x 0.72d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2015","brand":"Marnin Young","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064820019455,"sku":"9780300208320","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3d1f2c5d-b0a8-4442-b775-fb015e499bf3.jpg?v=1768671244","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/realism-in-the-age-of-marnin-young-9780300208320","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
