Seller's Description:
New/Sealed (remains in publisher's shrinkwrap; may have bumping, rubbing to edges, corners etc) Color pictorial boards w/ white & yellow printing. 285 pgs w/ primarily color illustrations. "Through an examination of the influence of French Orientalism on representations of the American West during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this volume considers how French artistic values informed the development of western American art and the ways that Orientalist aesthetics and ideology shaped both French and American colonialism and expansion."--"From the 1830s to the 1920s, American artists such as Alfred Jacob Miller, George de Forest Brush, Joseph H. Sharp, Bert Geer Phillips, and Ernest Blumenschein traveled to France to study their craft. Returning from abroad, these artists looked to the American West in search of new subjects. Influenced by French Orientalists such as Eugène Delacroix, Eugène Fromentin, and Jean-Léon Gérôme, the American artists applied an Orientalist aesthetic and ideology to their paintings, sculptures, and drawings, while at the same time creating works that appeared uniquely American. Exploring the ways that the visual tropes and knowledge structures of Orientalism influenced French and American colonialism and expansion, this volume considers the impact of French artistic techniques and tropes on the development of western American art. Other themes include the symbolism of desert landscapes and exotic animals, the role of world's fairs in disseminating Orientalist spectacles and stereotypes, and the importance of artistic pilgrimage to the deserts of North Africa and the American Southwest. Historical and contemporary perspectives of Indigenous peoples of North America, Muslim Americans, and Arab Americans challenge, negotiate, and provide alternative perspectives to the artworks."--Publisher/WorldCat.
