Focusing on aspects of Parisian life at the end of the 19th century when all that was new, transcendent and influential emerged in and was drawn to that European centre - Art Nouveau and the search for the modern; romantic impressonism; drugs, anarchism and the Occult; fashion and the fashionable - this catalogue is illustrated in colour. Specialist authors from the Musee d'Orsay and the National Gallery of Australia offer readings and perspectives on an intriguing period of French cultural and artistic history.
