This tenth collection of essays and reviews again throws the
spotlight on Paris and some of the painters and places associated
with the city. Montmartre in its heyday, the 1890s and thereabouts
when Edgar Degas and Alphonse Mucha produced images of the
spectacles to be seen in Paris and the leisure activities of its
citizens. Some of them, at least. Neither artist was noted for
painting scenes of working-class life, nor of poverty. To say that
is not to condemn them for it. The same can be said of Matisse and
Bonnard who largely created colourful canvases in the sun-drenched
South of France. We need to appreciate artists for what they did,
not accuse them for not doing what we think they should have done
