A well-researched book, stylishly written, a fine portrait not only of Impressionism but the society that made it possible. ... Smee convincingly demonstrates the degree to which [the Impressionists] were embedded in the political upheavals of their times., Smee blends political and military history and biography into a seamless narrative that will fundamentally change the way that we think about the emergence of impressionism. For art history lovers, this is required reading., Sebastian Smee has a gimlet eye, a seductive style and a novelist's feel for character and incident ... [he] has written an inspiring book ... about artists committed to 'the new': new ways of seeing a changing world; new ways of living and feeling; new ways of painting., "As for the larger story of the Impressionists, Smee suggests that their refusal to depict war may have constituted 'a collective act of psychological repression' or "an assertion of pacific values as an antidote to violence and trauma"--or both ... Better that reality, he argues, than the one that they and their compatriots had just endured.", Smee has a gimlet eye, a seductive style and a novelist's feel for character and incident ... Sebastian Smee has written an inspiring book ... about artists committed to 'the new': new ways of seeing a changing world; new ways of living and feeling; new ways of painting., Sebastian Smee explodes a tired chestnut about the Impressionists: that their works are merely pretty. Like a restorer scraping off layers of grime and dust, he restores color and nuance and light, and performs the vital critical task of forcing us to look better and deeper at things we thought we already knew., Detailed, lively and at times richly novelistic. Smee writes with both knowledge and panache, transmitting the sense of urgency and immediacy that animated the painters., [V]ibrant and incisive ... Paris in Ruins brims with delicious anecdotes: the Morisots' genteel gatherings; military duty imposed on eligible men; the hot-air balloons and carrier pigeons that preserved the city's communication with the world. ... [Smee] liberate[s] Impressionism from the clichés of dorm-room posters and greeting-card sentimentality., Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic Smee draws on a wealth of historical and biographical sources to examine the birth of impressionism during a time of ferocious political and social upheaval in France ... Smee vividly conveys the terror of the times, the tense military standoffs and plotting, and the inflamed passions ... [H]is depiction of impressionists' works is discerning, as is his sensitivity to the complicated relationships among the artists. ... Deft, vibrant cultural history., It's a precise, engrossing account of the artistic and military environment that preceded the emergence of the Impressionist movement., An indelible portrait of the city, Paris in Ruins captures the chaos of that year, and reveals how it had an incalculable effect on the development of modern art., [A] wide-ranging work of cultural history ... Smee's chronicle gains sinew as he recounts the deprivations and terrors of various artists and their families during the Prussian bombardment and the Communards' revolt. ... The book's central narrative follows two members of the Impressionist group, Édouard Manet and Berthe Morisot, offering an intimate portrait of their relations and changing fortunes., Astonishing. A true story which exults in love, courage, beauty, mischief and the mystery of human intimacy., The book well could change the way you think about Impressionism, and it might alter your perception of art history., Smee brings a fresh perspective by linking [the Siege of Paris and the Paris Commune] to the artistic development of impressionism in general and of Manet and Morisot in particular ... With exquisite sensitivity, he reads the similarities in [Manet and Morisot's] work from this period., Sebastian Smee takes us on an enthralling journey through Paris's 'Terrible Year', featuring the vivid characters and fast-moving plot of a novel. Paris in Ruins intertwines politics and warfare with the compelling personal stories of two great artists, beautifully revealing how the brilliance of Impressionism emerged from a backdrop of tragedy and violence., The book I am currently reading each evening and thoroughly enjoying is a new release by Washington Post art critic and Pulitzer Prize winner writer Sebastian Smee, Paris in Ruins follows the lives of two prominent Impressionist artists--Édouard Manet and Berthe Morisot--prior to, during and after the Terrible Year (1870-71)--the book details through their life journey how this pivotal moment in France's history influenced, arguably brought to life, the Impressionist movement., Sebastian Smee brings a fresh eye--the eye of the art critic and historian--to develop entirely new perspectives. The drama of the siege reads like a cliffhanger even though you know what's going to happen. Beautifully written, with a novelist's timing.

Synopsis
A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice, a Boston Globe "20 Books We Can't Wait to Read This Fall" and a Next Big Idea Club "Must-Read Book for September 2024" The Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic's gripping account of the "Terrible Year" in Paris and its monumental impact on the rise of Impressionism., A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice * A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2024 * A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2024 * One of The Boston Globe's "20 Books We Can't Wait to Read This Fall" * A Next Big Idea Club "Must-Read Book for September 2024" The Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic's gripping account of the "Terrible Year" in Paris and its monumental impact on the rise of Impressionism., From the summer of 1870 to the spring of 1871, famously dubbed the "Terrible Year" by Victor Hugo, Paris and its people were besieged, starved, and forced into surrender by Germans--then imperiled again as radical republicans established a breakaway Commune, ultimately crushed by the French Army after bloody street battles and the burning of central Paris. As renowned art critic Sebastian Smee shows, it was against the backdrop of these tumultuous times that the Impressionist movement was born--in response to violence, civil war, and political intrigue. In stirring and exceptionally vivid prose, Smee tells the story of those dramatic days through the eyes of great figures of Impressionism. Édouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, and Edgar Degas were trapped in Paris during the siege and deeply enmeshed in its politics. Others, including Pierre-August Renoir and Frédéric Bazille, joined regiments outside of the capital, while Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro fled the country just in time. In the aftermath, these artists developed a newfound sense of the fragility of life. That feeling for transience--reflected in Impressionism's emphasis on fugitive light, shifting seasons, glimpsed street scenes, and the impermanence of all things--became the movement's great contribution to the history of art. At the heart of it all is a love story; that of Manet, by all accounts the father of Impressionism, and Morisot, the only woman to play a central role in the movement from the start. Smee poignantly depicts their complex relationship, their tangled effect on each other, and their great legacy, while bringing overdue attention to the woman at the heart of Impressionism. Incisive and absorbing, Paris in Ruins captures the shifting passions and politics of the art world, revealing how the pressures of the siege and the chaos of the Commune had a profound impact on modern art, and how artistic genius can emerge from darkness and catastrophe.
