Overview
Portraiture and Friendship in Enlightenment France
examines how new and often contradictory ideas about friendship
were enacted in the lives of artists in the eighteenth century. It
demonstrates that portraits resulted from and generated new ideas
about friendship by analyzing the creation, exchange, and display
of portraits alongside discussions of friendship in philosophical
and academic discourse, exhibition criticism, personal diaries, and
correspondence. This study provides a deeper understanding of how
artists took advantage of changing conceptions of social
relationships and used portraiture to make visible new ideas about
friendship that were driven by Enlightenment thought.
