ISBN: 9780870998409.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis publication is the first major study of the French Neoclassical sculptor Augustin Pajou (1730-1809) in almost a century, and it is the only work about him in English. Here the artists work is discussed and illustrated in depth, and the artistic, courtly, and aristocratic circles in which he worked are considered in detail. This examination concentrates on the beginnings of Neoclassicism and explores the philosophical and scientific underpinnings of the Enlightenment, in which Pajou played an important part.\nThis publication, which accompanies a major exhibition at the Musee du Louvre, Paris, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, presents to both the scholar and the general reader a great artist who has at last received his due. The volume is lavishly illustrated and contains a detailed chronology, a short history of the artists critical reputation, an exhaustive bibliography, and a complete index.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Metropolitan Museum of Art New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45255524024373,"sku":"ByrdShop_0870998404","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780870998409_daa99cb1-bf6c-4abc-9cb7-d62f9363049f.jpg?v=1779931371","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/augustin-pajou-royal-sculptor-royal-sculptor-17301809-9780870998409","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
