The Gilded Age of the United States - a time of dazzling prosperity and decorative opulence at the close of the nineteenth century - inspired an equally extravagant artistic outpouring, particularly in portraiture of high-society women. Depicting women dressed in lush ball gowns, with regal bearing and beguiling expressions, these portraits were acquired in large numbers by the French government of the era. Paintings by celebrated American artists such as John White Alexander, Thomas Eakins, William T. Dannat, and John Singer Sargent and photographs taken by Gertrude Kasebier, George Henry Seeley, Edward Steichen, and Clarence H. White remain in French public collections today, and they are the subject of the Musee d'Art Americain Giverny exhibition "Portrait of a Lady". This accompanying volume, with texts in both French and English, includes eighty full-color reproductions of these portraits and provides critical insight into the varied representations of femininity in art." Portrait of a Lady" brings a new perspective to the Gilded Age, revealing it as a period of fruitful exchange between French and American artists, between painting and photography, between tradition and avant-garde - all linked to the myth of "woman," a myth that is both eternal and constantly changing.

評分读这本书前几章时,乃至整部小说的阅读过程中,我常常几乎以为自己打开的是简·奥斯汀的第七本小说(类似她的女同胞J·K·罗琳,最厚的一本)。的确,这位在他72岁时终于加入英国国籍的美国人,在小说开篇时以优雅闲适的语言——这语言常被认为是不可翻译的,但博尔赫斯说:“...
評分伊莎贝拉有着完美主义和理想主义的倾向。爱上奥斯蒙德完全就是自己的幻影在起作用。在表面上,伊莎贝拉是一位渴望自由与独立的女性,厌恶金钱与世俗的虚伪,但是在真正的现实生活中,却为了证明自己对世俗的厌恶,而最终却被一位特别虚伪的一事无成的半吊子而虏获,这是伊莎贝...
