ISBN: 9780306804175.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom 1925 to 1978, Janet Flanner was the Paris correspondent for \"The New Yorkers\", signing her letters \"Genet\". In \"Men and Monuments\", Flanner traces the course of four brilliant lives - those of the painters Picasso, Braque and Matisse, and the writer, politician and art critic Andre Malraux. Through anecdote, analysis, reportage, and opinion, Flanner presents a portrait of a time in Paris history - the late 1940s and 1950s - during which a nation recovered from a catastrophe, a new art was being forged and new ideas and values flourished. In addition, Flanner tells the inside story of one of the greatest art-pillaging campaign in history: Hitlers and Goerings ransack of the collections of the occupied countries during World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Da Capo Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44680763113525,"sku":"ByrdShop_0306804174","price":90.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780306804175_7efc7561-733b-4ae2-9507-4fa9645b4a3b_9f2fadc5-4a17-4e89-a0f6-725910d9285b.jpg?v=1789854334","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/men-and-monuments-9780306804175","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
