The impressionist masters were known for their close relationships. Their peers, family, art dealers, and patrons all featured regularly in their artworks, and children were favored subjects. All aspects of childhood and family life at the end of the nineteenth century—maternity, nannies, education, gardens, games, beaches, animals, adolescence, and daydreams—were depicted in the works of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Mary Cassatt, and Berthe Morisot. This volume draws an intimate portrait of the everyday lives of these artists and their families. One hundred paintings complete with historical and biographical context are featured alongside genealogical trees and family photographs of the impressionists, juxtaposed with more contemporary works. This book transcends the archetypal representation of the child to decipher the subject in all its facets. Published to accompany an exhibition at the Musée des Impressionismes Giverny in spring 2023, this volume is a tribute to children and family ties.

Maison Lescot—the historic residence in Port-Louis, Brittany, of an eighteenth-century Indian trading company importer—seemed predestined to become the new home and restoration project for the creative duo behind Antoinette Poisson, a Parisian workshop dedicated to reviving the savoir faire of domino paper for home decoration and furnishings. The two art historians were seduced by the poetic beauty of this artisanal craft—derived from an Indian block print technique—when they uncovered original hand-painted eighteenth-century domino wallpaper while restoring a mansion in central France. Enchanted by the repeat-pattern domino prints—which range from florals and fauna to geometric and ikat—they have appointed their new home with the charming decorative touches that are their signature— handmade lampshades, wallpaper lined armoires, paper-mâché marriage boxes, assorted table settings, and luxurious textiles.Celebrating the rhythm of life in France, they bring readers on adventures—shopping at the local market, antiquing, mushroom hunting, sheep¿s cheese making, and textile dying—and share classic seasonal French meals inspired by antique cookbooks, served-up on hand-dyed indigo tablecloths or on nautical striped throws for a seaside picnic. They also include creative insight from their style icon friends, like American decoupage artist John Derian. This exquisitely photographed book is a celebration of authentic French style.

Over the course of his fifty-year career, Jacques Grange has designed homes for the world's most respected collectors, artists, designers, and tastemakers, including Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, François Pinault, Robert Agostinelli, Valentino, Israel Englander, Stavros Niarchos, Terry and Jean de Gunzburg, Lauren and Andres Santo Domingo, Aerin Lauder, Per Skarstedt, and HRH The Princess of Hanover. His classical training at Paris's École Boulle and École Camondo, his early experience with the French design legend Henri Samuel, and his passion for contemporary art have resulted in a uniquely discerning approach to interior design. Grange's seemingly natural, "non-designed" aesthetic is revealed through his unusual way of grouping objects, and an unparalleled sense of style and attention to detail. This essential volume illustrates Grange's wide-ranging inspirations and exquisite taste through twenty new residential projects in Europe and America, from a luxury hôtel particulier in Paris to a chic beachside cabana in Comporta, Portugal, and a mid-century modern house in Los Angeles. Texts and interviews by Parisian gallerist Pierre Passebon delineate Grange's approach to design and decoration. Previously unpublished photography by François Halard captures these singular projects with profound sensibility.

The call of the wild has never looked as stylish as in these homes nestled in the French countryside, crafted by families pursuing a new form of country living. A manor next to an elegant seventeenth-century castle in a picturesque village, a restored four-hundred-year-old windmill, or a ruin in the Barbizon forest transformed into a contemporary timber house—our trio of authors saw the potential in these rural homes and took the leap into a life rhythmed by nature. But how did these urban dwellers step away from the glamour of Paris, and why haven’t they looked back? A calmer life enriched by its surroundings, with more space at home, a burgeoning garden, and a relaxed ambiance is a seductive combination. But a country house is different from a cozy apartment, just steps from modern conveniences. In their search for a deeper experience, they embarked on a long-term project that required planning and effort, but it brought unexpected joy along with the challenges. Life in the countryside takes adjustment and there is much to be learned—from furnishing and organizing your home to getting the most from nature and your garden, and from dressing to suit your new setting to hosting relaxed soirées where you’ll linger over dinner with your guests. This is the art of countryfication. Alongside portraits of similar-minded individuals and families who have adopted country living, this book provides insight, practical advice, and recipes that celebrate life in the countryside, all while retaining a Parisian flair.
