Monet, Narcissus, and Self-Reflection: The Modernist Myth of the Self Paperback - 1995 - 1st Edition

by Steven Z. Levine


From the publisher

This text provides an understanding of the life and work of Claude Monet and the myth of the modern artist. Levine analyzes the extensive critical reception of Monet and the artist's own writings in the context of the story of Narcissus, popular in late 19th-century France. Through a balance of psychoanalytical theory and historical study, he identifies narcissism and obsession as driving forces in Monet's art and demonstrates how meaning is derived from the accumulated responses to the work.

First line

IN HIS REVIEW of the Salon of 1859 Charles Baudelaire insists that the photographic reflection of nature will bring about the suicide of art.
