Lecture 10 French Realism
ARTH2720 Art History from the Renaissance

Travis Lee Clark
Utah Valley University

In this lecture we talk about why Courbet wouldn't paint angels, how the Salon des Refuses shocked the public with a girl in a white dress and the legacy of Manet, the Avant Garde, and how Realism may have invented the modern concept of Art.

Also, I remember a fact from Sports History accurately! It's a miracle!

I definitely love your lectures and am grateful for them. However, as much as I appreciate the long segment on Marx, I think your assesment on the things he's wrong about is terribly hasty. I understand that his theory of value is very commonly disputed and rejected by many economists along with numerous others who still find it instumental. But him simply being wrong about either the power of the ruling class or the opportunities the workers had for betterment of themselves, i.e. trade unions or even worse that they could buy into the capitalist line of thought is very clearly and imo accurately addressed by him, let alone generations of other thinkers and activists after him who took his theoretical framework as the basis of their understanding of the world.

Anyway sorry for being that whiny Marxist who's never satisfied with the degree of reverence given to Marx :) Thank you for the amazing lectures and for making them public.

Excellent! So, both the Romantic movement and the Realism movement can both be seen as a reaction to the Industrial revolution. The one saw the industrial age and the machine age as an undoing of a simpler, more bucolic existence and the other saw the industrial age in terms of the exploitation of the common people.

wow what a fabulous lecture thanks so much, great analysis, so easily explained, I have learnt tons! I was googling Courbet, and 2 hours later... I'll be back for all the others and no I don't know you from TikTok but I guess that is how you now have a worldwide set of subscribers (I'm London)
