William Bouguereau: paintings. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Sarah Williams   -  Sarah Williams, 2015  - 

William Adolphe Bouguereau was a follower of classical art and had no wish for everything like novelty or the avant-garde. William-Adolphe Bouguereau used ancient themes, making new readings of classical myths. He settled his abundant fantasy space with a romanticized selection of angels, women and children. His views angered many critics who called him "a master in the hierarchy of mediocrity" but he is undoubtedly a key figure in 19th century French art. His sense of idealism was his ruling rule, regarding the ugly as worthless for depiction. Throughout his life, Bouguereau created 822 known finished paintings, although the location of many of them is still unidentified.

Camille Pissarro: drawings. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Sarah Williams   -  Sarah Williams, 2015  - 

"Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing." Camille Pissarro Camille Pissarro was French artist, the only painter to show in all eight of the Impressionist exhibitions between 1874 and 1886, and he is frequently considered as the "father" of the Impressionist movement. Throughout his life Pissarro remained as radical in artistic matters as he was in politics. The significance of Pissarro's work is in the sense of balance maintained between the conventional and the avant-garde. Pissarro's warmth and generosity made him an attractive to many French painters. He was especially favorites as teacher and friend to Gauguin, Cezanne, and Mary Cassatt. His son Lucien was also his pupil. This book represents Camille Pissarro in somewhat different from the traditional light - not as a painter with extraordinary sense of color, but as a draftsman with an incredible sense of forms and movement.

Pierre-Auguste Renoir is French painter who was a important figure in the development of the Impressionist movement.

Renoir's artworks are famous for their vivacious light and saturated color, most frequently focusing on people in friendly and intimate compositions. The female nudes were one of his primary themes. In typical Impressionist manner, Renoir suggested the details of a picture through liberally brushed touches of color, so that his figures softly fuse with one another and their environment.
