註釋Peasants and "Primitivism" examines a significant aspect of 19th-century French culture -- the fascination with peasants, rustic ways, and the perceived social harmony of agrarian communities. The distinction between city, and country was not new but assumed a new and powerful set of meanings, particularly after the Revolution of 1848. During the succeeding decades the realities of rural life shifted, as did the artistic representation of them. Thus, the prints reproduced in this volume present a complex dialogue between the changing countryside and the ways in which it was envisioned by urban artists and by the urban consumers of their imagery.
