Boilly : Le Peintre De La Société Parisienne De Louis Xvi À Louis-Philippe

Louis-Léopold Boilly (1791-1845), brilliant witness of Parisian life from Louis XVI to Louis-Philippe, was a highly prolific painter, author of two-thousand paintings, drawings and prints, but also of small portraits, real "ID-photos" of his contemporaries.

The fruit of 25 years of researches, this two-volume books gathers a monograph and the catalogue raisonné of the artist's works. It underlines the different faces of Boilly, whose curiosity and sense of humour still fascinate.
