Overview

From Manet to Gericault, Daubigny to Corot, an insightful, breathtakingly original exploration of French art and literature.

French Suite examines a range of important French painters and two writers, Baudelaire and Flaubert, from the brothers Le Nain in the mid-seventeenth century to Manet, Degas, and the Impressionists in the later nineteenth century. A principal theme of Michael Fried's essays is a fundamental concern of his throughout his career: the relationship between painting and the beholder. Fried's typically vivid and strongly argued essays offer many new readings and unexpected insights, examining both familiar and lesser-known French artistic and literary works.
