Item Number: 121825 Title: Du côté de chez Jacques-Emile BLANCHE : Un salon a la Belle Epoque Author: Neutres, Jerome Price: Not Available ISBN: 9782081288584 Description: Paris: Flammarion, 2012. 26cm., hardcover, 144pp. illus. Exhibition held at Fondation Pierre Bergé, Paris. Summary: The Fondation Pierre Bergé - Yves Saint Laurent is dedicating its 18th exhibition to the painter, Jacques Emile Blanche (1861-1942). Blanche frequented artistic circles from an early age and had become French high society’s most sought-after portraitist by the end of the 19th century. The exhibition focuses on the painter’s glory days prior to 1914 and will include seventy paintings arranged in a turn-of-the-century setting, in which visitors will find the young Proust, Claudel, Colette, Rodin, Cocteau, Debussy, Degas, Mallarmé, Louÿs and other major figures of the Belle Époque. The exhibition conveys the candid regard of an extraordinary observer of his time, a world soon to be swept away by the First World War.
