This book reframes the formative years of three significant
artists: Henri Fantin-Latour, Alphonse Legros, and James McNeill
Whistler. The trio's coming together as the Societe des trois
occurred during the emergence of the artistic avant-garde-a
movement toward individualism and self-expression. Though their
oeuvres appear dissimilar, it is imperative that the three artists'
early work and letters be viewed in light of the Societe, as it
informed many of their decisions in both London and Paris. Each
artist actively cultivated a translocal presence, creating artistic
networks that transcended national borders. Thus, this book will
serve as a comprehensive resource on the development, production,
implications, and eventual end of the Societe.
