Genre Artists: Painting Nude Female Bathers
The genre paintings have gone through constant change. It has occurred due to the change of lifestyle of the people and accepting newer themes of paintings by the artists. The art of genre painting has developed through these changes. It has got new work and the fresh perspectives with the passing of time.
In seventeenth and eighteenth century, the subjects of genre painting ran around the peasant’s acts of joy. These acts were like dancing, participating in festivals and many a time doing household and professional works for earning. Most of these subjects explored the sensual experience of the common people, especially the acts of pleasure.
As confined by the definition, and the concept that outline the scope of genre painting, the artists have remained preoccupied in painting the reality. These artists, mainly the Dutch painters, preoccupied themselves in painting the costumes and daily practices of the people living in their immediate surrounding. However the art had never been mere exposition of what the artists saw. These artists applied their observations and artistic analysis while painting the scenes before their eyes.
With the change of the life style of the common people, to, the bath house culture had evolved. These houses were the places where families would go for bathing. They would go in flocks, taking friends and children with them. However there were separate baths for men and women. The bath houses meant for women were staffed by the female servants only.
In some genre paintings we can see bath house where the women bathers are enjoying their bath along with friends. The artists, Jean-Léon Gérôme, had skilfully depicted the nude females bathing and cleansing their bodies.

Ingres Then, and Now $33.95 Ingres Then, and Now is an innovative study of one of the best-known French artists of the nineteenth century, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres. Adam Rifkin reevaluates Ingres’ work in the context of a variety of literary, musical and visual cultures which are normally seen as alien to him.Rifkin offers insightful interpretations of Ingres’ early work, and follows the artist’s image in the popular cultures of the twentieth century. Approaching Ingres’ paintings as symptomatic of the commodity cultures of nineteenth-century Paris, he draws the artist away from his familiar association with the Academy and the Salon, and instead situates Ingres in the world of the Parisian Arcades. Finally, the book examines Ingres’ importance for the great French art critic Jean Cassou, and makes a bold, contemporary gay appropriation of his work. Ingres Then, and Now transforms the popular image we have of Ingres. Rifkin argues that the figure of the artist is neither fixed in time or place–there is neither an essential man named Ingres, nor a singular body of his work–but rather is an effect of many complex and overlapping historical forces. Lavishly illustrated with over 50 images, this compelling study will transform our understanding of Ingres and his cultural impact. |

Lost Treasures of Louis Comfort Tiffany $39.96 The works of the Tiffany Studios revolutionized interior design in turn-of-the-century America. All of the company’s works-from stained-glass windows to blown-glass vases; lamp shades to inkwells-bore the unique stamp of one man, Louis Comfort Tiffany, who created the Tiffany Studios and supervised every aspect of their production. Many of these official studio pieces are well known today-avidly sought by museums and collectors worldwide. Special ones among them, as well as other lesser known pieces-the “lost” works of Louis Tiffany himself-are, in a real sense, the core of his astonishing achievement. They comprise his personal oeuvre-the objects made from his original designs for exhibition, for private commissions, or for use in Tiffany’s own homes. This book reevaluates Tiffany’s art in terms of his personal work-including pieces in all the media that attracted him over the course of his prolific career; stained glass, of course, but also mosaics, blown glass, pottery, jewelry, and enamels. Tiffany’s pioneering efforts in interior design are covered, as are his easel paintings and his dream of creating a permanent residential retreat for working artists. Hugh F. McKean also provides much intimate insight into Tiffany’s personality, his domestic life, his financial dealings, and his unusual philosophy of art. Lavishly illustrated, the book presents a vivid display of Tiffany’s wide-ranging aesthetic. The result is a rare portrait of Tiffany the man-and of the prodigious imagination that almost single-handedly transformed the day-to-day image of a nation and an era. |
