"What meets the eye in Renoir's paintings of nude bathers? To some viewers, they are the very picture of female sensuality and beauty. To others, they embody a whole tradition of masculine mastery and feminine display. Yet others find in these naked women a fantasy of bodily liberation. The points of view are many, various, and occasionally startling. Linda Nochlin's aim in looking at works of art is not to construct a unitary response but to pull things apart, to leave the reader unsettled, confronting the contradictions - about the body, beauty, and ways of viewing - in the work of impressionists, modern masters, contemporary realists, and postmodernists."--Jacket. Contents include: Renoir's Great bathers : bathing as practice, bathing as representation -- Manet's Le bain : the Déjeuner and the death of the heroic landscape -- The man in the bathtub : Picasso's Le meutre and the gender of bathing -- Monet's Hôtel des roches noires : anxiety and perspective at the seashore -- Real beauty : the body in realism -- More beautiful than a beautiful thing : the body, old age, ruin, and death. Also includes bibliographical references and index. 2006. Harvard University Press ISBN ...
