Discoveries: Chardin : An Intimate Art (Discoveries (Abrams))

Editorial Reviews Book Description Charming yet scholarly, this book explores the work of the French artist Jean Baptiste Simon Chardin, who brought a breath of fresh air to 18th-century painting. His masterful sense of color and light filled his simple domestic interiors and delicate renderings of still lifes with a profound humanism. A major Chardin exhibition opens in June 2000 at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

126 illustrations, 86 in full color, 5 x 7"
