From dust jacket notes: "...Jules Breton and the French Rural Tradition is the most comprehensive exhibition ever mounted on the artist. Organized by Hollister Sturges, Joslyn Art Museum's Curator of European Art, the exhibition includes Breton's Salon paintings from five decades and many oil sketches and drawings still in the colleciton of the artist's descendants. Leading scholars on nineteenth-century French painting have contributed essays to this publication. In addition to Hollister Sturtges's text...Gabriel P. Weisberg has written on Breton in a social and political context and Madeleine Fidell-Beaufort on 'Collectors of Breton in Late Nineteenth-Century America.' Drawing on letters and documents from the Breton family archives, Annette Bourrut-Lacouture has contributed a discussion on 'The Origins and Youth of Jules Breton.'"</p>
