Absolute Bourgeois: Artists And Politics In France, 1848-1851
Author: Clark, T. J.
Paperback; Illustrated
Published: April 1999

ISBN: 0520217446

The book tells the story of a handful of artists trying to take advantage of that unfamiliar -- and short-lived -- situation. Daumier and Millet are central, particularly in their dealings with the new State's art patronage machine; Delacroix figures as painter and diarist, in agonized withdrawal from the possibility of change, haunted by his own Liberty Guiding the People; and Baudelaire is depicted, after a moment of tortured political involvement in the first months of the Republic, as the great poet of postrevolutionary despair.
