Among the 50 featured artists are some of France's most celebrated eighteenth-century practitioners, including Madeleine Basseporte (1701-1780), François Boucher (1703-1770), Gabriel de Saint Aubin (1724-1780), and Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806), alongside architects, designers, and printmakers. Scattered across the institution's vast reserves, these drawings have until now served primarily documentary purposes. In this book, leading international scholars introduce more than 80 drawings, albums, and sketchbooks--many published here for the first time--and reveal how artists used drawing to record, critique, and try to improve the world around them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for the Clark Art Institute \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eClark Art Institute, Williamstown, MA\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (December 17, 2022-March 12, 2023) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMusée des Beaux-Arts de Tours\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (May 12-August 28, 2023)\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEsther Bell\u003c\/b\u003e is the Robert and Martha Berman Lipp Chief Curator, \u003cb\u003eSarah Grandin\u003c\/b\u003e is the Clark-Getty Curatorial Fellow, and \u003cb\u003eAnne Leonard\u003c\/b\u003e is the Manton Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs, all at the Clark Art Institute, Williamstown, MA. \u003cb\u003eCorinne Le Bitouzé\u003c\/b\u003e is the conservateur général, adjoint au directeur du Département des estampes et de la photographie at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 11 x 9.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 03, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48754022580473,"sku":"9780300266931","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/sG6h6xXFN89780300266931.webp?v=1785854576","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/promenades-on-paper-eighteenth-century-french-drawings-from-the-bibliotheque-nationale-de-france-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
