Abstract

The Life and Work of Rosalba Carriera (1673-1757): The Queen of Pastel is the first extensive biographical narrative in English of Rosalba Carriera. It is also the first scholarly investigation of the external and internal factors that helped to create this female painter's unique career in eighteenth-century Europe. It documents the difficulties, complications, and consequences that arose then -- and can also arise today -- when a woman decides to become an independent artist. This book contributes a new, in-depth analysis of the interplay between society's expectations, generally accepted codices for gendered behaviour, and one single female painter's astute strategies for achieving success, as well as autonomy in her professional life as a famed artist. Some of the questions that the author raises are: How did Carriera manage to build up her career? How did she run her business and organize her own workshop? What kind of artist was Carriera? Finally, what do her self-portraits reveal in terms of self-enactment and possibly autobiographical turning points?

Abstract

Mariage d'amour de la couleur et du dessin (José-Maria de Heredia), le pastel fascine par sa texture crayeuse et par l'éclat de ses teintes. Conçu au départ pour rehausser les dessins, le pastel gagne peu à peu ses lettres de noblesse et devient un art à part entière. A travers une somptueuse iconographie, cet ouvrage retrace pour la première fois l'oeuvre des principaux artistes qui ont haussé le pastel au rang d'art majeur entre le XVIIIe et le XIXe siècle : Maurice Quentin de La Tour et ses portraits plus vivants que nature, Jean-Etienne Liotard et sa précision captivante; un siècle plus tard, Edgar Degas et ses danseuses aux tutus éclatants comme des bouquets, ou encore Odilon Redon et ses couleurs irradiantes, nourries à la source du rêve et de l'imagination. A côté de ces pastellistes renommés, cet ouvrage met en lumière une pléiade d'artistes qui grâce au pastel s'aventurent hors des sentiers battus : Joseph Vivien, Adélaïde Labille-Guiard, Gustav Lundberg, John Russell, Eugène Boudin, Jean-François Millet, Giuseppe de Nittis, Edouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassat, James McNeill Whistler, William Merritt Chase, Louise Breslau, Fernand Khnopff.
