An illustrated exploration of the largely unpublished collection of
eighteenth-century French drawings, albums, and sketchbooks at the
Bibliotheque nationale de France Promenades on Paper explores the
largely unmined collection of eighteenth-century drawings held in
the Department of Prints and Photography of the Bibliotheque
nationale de France. Among the 50 featured artists are some of
France's most celebrated eighteenth-century practitioners,
including Madeleine Basseporte (1701-1780), Francois Boucher
(1703-1770), Gabriel de Saint Aubin (1724-1780), and Jean-Honore
Fragonard (1732-1806), alongside architects, designers, and
printmakers. Scattered across the institution's vast reserves,
these drawings have until now served primarily documentary
purposes. In this book, leading international scholars introduce
more than 80 drawings, albums, and sketchbooks-many published here
for the first time-and reveal how artists used drawing to record,
critique, and try to improve the world around them. Distributed for
the Clark Art Institute Exhibition Schedule: Clark Art Institute,
Williamstown, MA (December 17, 2022-March 12, 2023) Musee des
Beaux-Arts de Tours (May 12-August 28, 2023)
