📚 Book signing to follow! Copies of “The Art of Parisian Chic: Modern Women and Modern Artists in Impressionist Paris” available in the DMA Store. 

Edouard Manet was celebrated for his paintings of chic  Parisiennes  such as Isabelle Lemonnier, one of his favorite models. The elegant and charming Lemonnier, the sister of famous salon hostess Marguerite Charpentier, fascinated Manet. Both were masters of the art of Parisian chic, aligning dress, appearance, and behavior in line with expectations of the time, as this talk will explore.  

Looking at a rich array of visual sources—from portraits to modern-life paintings, and from photographs to fashion plates—Professor Justine De Young will reveal how women like Lemonnier were seen, how they aspired to be seen, and how they navigated public life in Second Empire and Belle Epoque Paris. A book signing for her new publication, The Art of Parisian Chic: Modern Women and Modern Artists in Impressionist Paris, will follow. Dr. De Young's book will be available for purchase in the DMA Store.
