Le Moulin de la Galette
Le Moulin de la Galette • Renoir delighted in `the people’s Paris', of which the Moulin de la Galette near the top of Montmartre was a characteristic place of entertainment, and his picture of the Sunday afternoon dance in its acacia-shaded courtyard is one of his happiest compositions. • This en plein air painting has human beings, mainly women, being the subject of this painting.
The Bathers “I consider my nude finished when I feel like smacking her bottom. ” Renoir
The Girls at the Piano
Mary Cassatt n n n 1845 -1926 American – worked in France Important Fact: u restrained by societal ideas Characteristics: u Only painted “womanly” topics – why? Famous works: u The Bath u The Boating Party
The Boating Party
The Bath (How is emphasis created in this painting? )
The Bath (How is emphasis created in this painting? ) • In The Child's Bath, the circular shapes of the figures’ heads, the basin, and the pitcher, as well as the striped pattern of the woman’s dress animate the portrait of a woman bathing a child. Cassatt’s unusual vantage point (from above) as well as her choice of a female subject show her interest in Japanese woodblock prints, which had become extremely popular in France at the time. • The many paintings, pastels, and prints in which Cassatt depicted children being bathed, dressed, read to, held, or nursed reflect the most advanced 19 th-century ideas about raising children.
Influence of Japanese artwork on Impressionism
Auguste Rodin n n 1840 -1917 French Important Fact: u Revived sculpture as an art form Characteristics of Work: u used CLUMPS of clay to create sculptures Famous works: u The Thinker u The Age of Bronze
The Thinker
The Thinker • The Thinker was originally meant to be Dante in front of the Gates of Hell, pondering his great poem. Dante as a voluptuous naked male may seem absurd to those who think of the images painted in his time and after, but Dante's head does bear some resemblance to the profile of The Thinker. Moreover, Dante's headdress is distinctive and seems to be indicated by the markings Rodin made on his working copy of The Thinker. • Why is The Thinker naked? Because Rodin wanted a heroic figure à la Michelangelo to represent Thinking as well as Poetry. • The work of Rodin resonates with the great aspirations of the 19 th century, the century of Darwin, Marx and Wagner. But in his equation, The Thinker = the Poet = the Creator, Rodin was way ahead of his time. • The Thinker was the first work by Rodin to be erected in a public place. It was inaugurated in front of the Pantheon on 21 April 1906 during an intense political and social crises which turned this sculpture into a socialist symbol.
The Age of Bronze
Edgar Degas n n n 1834 -1917 French Important Facts: u Famous for his work in painting, sculpture, printmaking and drawing Characteristics: u over half his works depict dancers Brought traditional methods of a history painter to show contemporary subject matter
The Dance Class
The Dance Class • The Dance Class was exhibited in 1876 at the second Impressionist exhibition. The subject of the work is a dance class conducted by the famous ballet master Jules Perrot. • The scene is a careful arrangement of what seems to be a random collection of postures and poses. One ballerina, who is the central focus of the composition, dances while the others mill about around her, presumably waiting their turn. • Like most of the dancers in Degas's works, these ballerinas are not performing. Degas has caught them in the unglamorous environs of the practice hall.
