The exhibition features 77 paintings, prints, and sculptures dating from 1750 to 1850?many of which have never been seen outside of France. To develop the exhibition, NMWA spent months scouring the collections of dozens of French museums and libraries to cull rarely-seen works by women artists. Royalists to Romantics showcases these exceptional works and reveals how the tumultuous period that saw the flowering of the court of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, the terrors of the French revolution, the rise and fall of Napoleon, and the restoration of the monarchy affected the lives and careers of women artists.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"corpsTexte\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"corpsTexte\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Featuring 35 artists, including Marguerite G\u00e9rard, Antoine Cecile Haudebourt-Lescot, Ad\u00e9la\u00efde Labille-Guillard, Sophie Rude, Anne Vallayer-Coster, and \u00c9lisabeth Louise Vig\u00e9e-Lebrun, the exhibition explores the political and social dynamics that shaped their world and influenced their work. Some of these artists flourished with support of such aristocratic patrons as Marie Antoinette, who not only appointed her favorite female artists \u00c9lisabeth Louise Vig\u00e9e-LeBrun and Anne Vallayer-Coster to court, but advocated their acceptance into the Acad\u00e9mie Royale de peinture et de sculpture. The political upheavals of the French Revolution and the following decades brought a new set of challenges for women artists. Royalists to Romantics explores the complex ways that women negotiated their cultural positions and marketed their reputations in Frances shifting social, political and artistic environment.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"corpsTexte\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"corpsTexte\"><em><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Royalists to Romantics: Women Artists from the Louvre, Versailles, and other French National Collections<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-size: small;\"> has been organized by the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington, D.C., with logistical support from sVo Art, Versailles.<br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"corpsTexte\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\" class=\"corpsTexte\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Site :<a _fcksavedurl=\"http:\/\/nmwa.org\/exhibition\/detail.asp?exhibitid=221\" href=\"http:\/\/nmwa.org\/exhibition\/detail.asp?exhibitid=221\"> http:\/\/nmwa.org\/exhibition\/detail.asp?exhibitid=221<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In keeping with its mission to rediscover and celebrate women artists of the past and demonstrate their continued relevance, the National Museum of Women in Arts (NMWA) presents Royalists to Romantics: Women Artists from the Louvre, Versailles, and Other French National Collections.
