Bazille: Purity, Pose, and Painting in the 1860s

This study seeks to situate Bazille within the complex art world of the 1860s. It examines a series of major paintings and critical essays by Bazille and his contemporaries and frames them within the modernist discourse about purity, or respecting the proper limits of the medium.
