Instead, this book shows the significance and seriousness underpinning the notion of pleasure embedded in eighteenth-century history painting. During this time, pleasure became a moral ideal grounded not only in domestic life but also defining a range of social, political, and cultural transactions oriented toward transforming and improving society at large. History, painting, and the seriousness of pleasure in the age of Louis XV reconsiders the role of history painting in creating a new visual language that presented peace and happiness as an individual's natural right in the aftermath of Louis XIV's bellicose reign (1643-1715). In this new study, Susanna Caviglia reinvestigates the artistic practices of an entire generation of painters born around 1700 (e.g., François Boucher, Charles-Joseph Natoire, and Carle Vanloo) in order to highlight the cultural forces at work within their now iconic images. -- Publisher. 501 $a Bound with: The Emergence of a theatrical science of man in France, 1660â1740; and, Enlightenment Virtue, 1680-1794. 650 0 $a Pleasure in art. 650 0 $a Art, Baroque. 650 0 $a Art, Rococo. 650 0 $a Civilization, Western $x Philosophy. 651 0 $a France $x History. 651 0 $a Europe $x History. 650 0 $a History, Modern $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Enlightenment. 650 0 $a Enlightenment $z France. 600 00 $a Louis $b XV, $c King of France, $d 1710-1774. 600 07 $a Louis $b XV, $c King of France, $d 1710-1774. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00019562 650 7 $a Art, Baroque. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815997 650 7 $a Art, Rococo. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816803 650 7 $a Civilization, Western $x Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00863161 650 7 $a Enlightenment. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00912527 650 7 $a History, Modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00958367 650 7 $a Pleasure in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01067088 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 773 18 $w 990075856550202771 $g no:31858071206753 830 0 $a Oxford University studies in the Enlightenment ; $v 2020:02. $x 0435-2866 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317020736.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A064FDE6CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
