~LIKE the paintings at its heart, this book is an individual effort inconceivable without the contributions of others. First, I owe a tremendous debt to Tim Clark: for the way he lit up when I suggested working on Fantin-Latour and the problem of the group years ago, and for the way his enthusiasm and support have sustained my work on the topic ever...

THIS chapter centers on a foundational image of avant-garde group identity. The painting is large and full of figures, an ambitious submission to the Paris Salon of 1865. The setting is strange: there are indications of an artist’s studio or some other austere bourgeois...

ON 18 March 1872, Edmond de Goncourt paid a visit to Fantin-Latour’s studio to see his latest work-in-progress, a group portrait of avant-garde poets arranged around a table after a meal. A quarrel among Fantin’s sit-ters had left him with a noticeable gap in his composition, still unfilled when his...

FANTIN-LATOUR has been the core of every chapter in this book so far. Courbet, Manet, and Degas have all been significant parts of the story, but it is in Fantin’s work that my key arguments have found their root. He has been my focus because his work’s engagement with group dynamics is the most deep and sustained, and because his painting’s best expose the...

~SHORTLY before Degas made Six Friends at Dieppe, Fantin exhibited his fifth and last group portrait at the Paris Salon: Around the Piano, 1885 (plate 5). By this point, Fantin’s career and critical reputation were well established and his break with the impressionists firmly entrenched. He was returning to group portraiture after a long hiatus—his last effort was Corner of a Table, 1872 (plate...
