Pierre Puvis de Chavannes is not a very well-known artist. Famous throughout his life yetquickly forgotten by the history of art, his work remains little-studied in comparison tothe Impressionist masterpieces of the same period. His oeuvre, however, was crucialin France at the end of the 19th century, in particular his mural paintings which are stillvisible today in numerous important public buildings, such as the Hotel de Ville and the Pantheon in Paris, or the Palais des Beaux-arts in Lyon. Puvis' specialty was monumental decorative works. He tackled traditionalsubjects from a more general angle and his works were accepted by all the artistic principlesof the time. Far from being a cold and academic painter, he supported artists includingCourbet, Bazile, and Degas when they were attacked by the critics. His oeuvreplayed an essential role in the construction of a national French identity in the 19thcentury.Today the glory of Puvis de Chavannes shines forth in uncontested splendour. No one dreams of comparing him with any of his contemporaries, because his art reveals no kinship with that of any one of them. He is recognized as the successor and the equal of the great fresco painters of the Italian Renaissance. Even to these he owes nothing, having borrowed nothing from them. But he shares with them his passionate love of truth, his nobility of inspiration and sincerity of execution.

An artist of pivotal importance to the generation of post-Impressionists from Seurat and Gauguin to Matisse and Picasso, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes (1824 - 1898) played a crucial role in the history of late-19th-century French art and the development of modernism. He was an artist of great range, originality, and idiosyncratic invention who executed mural complexes, compelling easel paintings, and numerous works on paper. These two companion volumes--a critical study of the artist's life and art, and a catalogue raisonn of his paintings--introduce many of Puvis's works for the first time, assess his contribution, and restore him to the pantheon of modern masters. Volume I situates Puvis and his work in his time. With a wealth of new documentation, it addresses the theories, forces, and events that impinged on his art. Volume II is a complete compendium of Puvis's easel paintings and mural cycles for civic buildings throughout France as well as for the Boston Public Library.

The author of monumental mural decorations in such civic buildings as the museums of Amiens, Lyons, Rouen, the Panthéon and the Sorbonne, Puvis de Chavannes had a remarkable influence on his contemporaries in France and abroad, including Seurat, Gauguin and Cézanne, as well as on later generations of artists. Equally indebted to de Chavannes are the great European symbolist painters, from Munch to Hodler. However, perhaps his most prestigious modern acolytes were Picasso and Matisse, who remained loyal to him all their lives. This volume features detailed scholarly contributions analysing Puvis de Chavannes’s work and all his affiliations, as well as offering rich critical and documentary data on his many notable disciples. Accompanied by over five hundred illustrations,this volume is a superb evocation of a period of great artistic ferment and outstanding creativity.

Excerpt from Puvis De Chavannes: With a Biographical Critical Study V111the then illustrious master and the humble writer on art, who, from his earliest years, had had the most fervent admiration for him. We were already friends - if such a word can properly be used to describe a relation ship between men oi such unequal ages and quality when we met. One needs to have participated in those jovial gatherings in which for several years painters, sculptors, musicians, and men of letters met every month under his chairman ship-one needs to have seen him in his genial good humour and good fellowship, tempered always with his sound common sense, to understand how he has been caricatured in the pen-portraits of the long-haired esthetes and nee-mystics, the scullions let loose from the kitchens of Montsalvat, which appeared during the last years of his life. Without attempting any analysis of his work, which will be amply set before the reader in M. Jean Laran's notes, I would like to show in a few words how his work really belongs to the greatest French traditions, how, logically, it came at its appointed hour, and how we Frenchmen found in it and championed our Ideal against the stifling formulae of the academies, and the naturalists who denied it, and the perverts and charlatans who profaned it. The mere mention of the word Ideal seems to upset certain minds. It has been so horribly abused aestheti cally, it has been burdened with meanings so widely diverse in the jargon of the schools, that it can only be used with extreme caution. As a matter of fact all art, by its very existence, is ideal, since it can only exist by the intervention of man following a directing and organizing idea.
