About This Item
Los Angeles: J. Paul Getty Museum; Getty Museum Studies on Art Ser., 2000. 92 pages, colour illustrations; 24 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. First Edition. "Jean-Baptiste Greuze's diminutive picture of a rosy-cheeked girl wringing out her linen was one of fourteen works that he exhibited at the Salon of 1761 in Paris. This lively and engrossing book traces the history of the Getty Museum's painting, compares the work to other laundresses painted by Greuze, and explores social mores and the role of artists model in the eighteenth century. It provides an enlightening account of Greuze's life and times and the influences on his work." - Publisher.. 1st. Paperback. Fine. 8vo.
