Part two, \"The Unexpected Boucher,\" focuses on the network of social and cultural contexts in which the artist functioned, including the commercial print market, the theaters of Paris, and the contemporary textual explorations of the exotic. The final part, \"The Enlightened Boucher,\" discusses Boucher's work as a vehicle for Enlightenment visions of the body, whether conjured by Denis Diderot and Jean-Jacques Rousseau or Madame de Pompadour, Boucher's most famous patron.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Melissa Hyde\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 089236825X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780892368259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Getty Research Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.02w x 0.73d","brand":"Melissa Hyde","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48174892515583,"sku":"9780892368259","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_af156534-c254-45b8-b94c-b793d72090e6.jpg?v=1771331209","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rethinking-boucher-melissa-hyde-9780892368259","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
