THE OTHER SIDE OF THE VEIL; EPILOGUE; NOTES; BIBLIOGRAPHY; INDEXIn Sheer Presence, Marni Reva Kessler demonstrates how the ubiquitous veil and its visual representations knot together many of the precepts of Parisian life. Positioning the veil directly at the intersection of feminist, formalist, and social art history, Kessler offers a fresh perspective on period discourses of public health, seduction and sexuality, colonial stereotypes, and, ultimately, an emerging modernity.VeilsSocial aspectsFranceParisVeilsFranceParisHistory19th centuryVeils in artImpressionism (Art)FranceParisParis (France)Social life and customs19th centuryParis (France)History19th centuryElectronic books.VeilsSocial aspectsVeilsHistoryVeils in art.Impressionism (Art)391.4/30944361Kessler Marni Reva1055381MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452090703321Sheer presence2488730UNINA
