by Linda Nochlin (Author)
Gustave Courbet is arguably the most radical of all 19th-century painters and one of the fathers of modern art. This book presents various aspects of his oeuvre, from his vast realist depictions of provincial French life, allegorical works, and paint-encrusted landscapes to his dark, brooding portraits, sensual nudes and earthy still lifes.
