It has long been observed that Impressionists and their followers heeded Charles Baudelaire's call to paint "modern life." Paris and the Countryside explores modernity, a cultural notion, with a parallel emphasis on the development of modernism, an art historical concept. Essays focus on the city and the countryside. Together they examine the notions of modernity and modernism in late nineteenth-century France, acknowledging, summarizing, and interpreting the wide array of artistic responses to the modern world.

De opvolger van het veelgeprezen De gezusters Romanov '[Parijs] heeft er dankzij dit meeslepende boek een dimensie bij gekregen.' ●●●● NRC Jarenlang genoten Russische aristocraten van al het moois dat het Parijs van de belle époque te bieden had. Met hun fortuin trokken zij naar Frankrijk om daar een luxeleven te leiden, en Parijs was dé plek voor artistieke en extravagante uitspattingen, zoals Diaghilevs Ballets Russes. Maar aan al dit genot kwam een einde toen de gewelddadige machtsovername door de bolsjewieken veel Russen dwong hun thuisland te verlaten, waarbij ze alles moesten achterlaten.

Nella Francia della prima guerra mondiale la scuola era considerata dalle autorità come il &"centro morale&" del paese, e i bambini erano oggetto di una metodica esaltazione patriottica che, molto spesso, sfociava nell&'odio verso gli altri.

Dietro l&'aspetto pittoresco di oggetti e documenti che presentano i bambini nella Grande Guerra, si vede come lo Stato tratta i pupilli della Nazione alla fine del conflitto.

Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts avancierten Plakate von Frankreich ausgehend von bloßer Werbung zu einer veritablen Kunstform. Als Blickfang dienten vor allem Frauenfiguren - von der verklärten Idealgestalt bis hin zur verführerischen Lebedame. Anhand der zentralen Werbestereotype der damaligen Zeit erläutert Barbara Martin, welche Vorstellungen von Weiblichkeit den Darstellungen zugrunde liegen und wie Plakate das Rollenbild der Frau in der Gesellschaft spiegelten und zugleich veränderten. Untersucht werden Werke von Jules Chéret bis Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen, von Alfons Mucha bis Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.
